IT ALL BEGINS WITH AN IDEA

Once the voices become louder, my hands become a vessel and worlds slowly bloom.


I make an effort to utilize minorities as my character leads in the books I write. I feel this is my calling. How ​many times have I, myself, searched high and low for romance/dark romance... or any book for that mater... ​that had characters I could relate to? Only to come up with very few or none at all.


It shouldn’t have to be this way.​


I want to be able to bring these worlds to the people who aren’t normally heard. I want to be able to be an ​open enough indie author to always be an ear for those who need it - to be able to create something ​beautiful my readers can be proud to be a part of.​
