About
I write fantasy adventure stories for kids ages 9 and up—and for the adults who care about what their kids are reading.
​​
My books feature monsters, magic, mystery, and fast-paced adventure. They’re designed to pull readers into a hidden world quickly, then keep them there with danger, problem-solving, and humor. Boys like them. Girls like them. Parents like to secretly read ahead.
​​
The Casey Grimes books explore an alternate version of the United States where monsters stalk the suburbs and hidden academies train kids to survive what most people can’t see. The stories combine monster-hunting action with layered mysteries and emotional stakes without losing sight of fun.
​
The series has received professional reviews, including from Kirkus, and has been honored by multiple international book awards. It’s trusted by parents, teachers, and librarians looking for exciting middle grade fiction that stays age-appropriate without talking down to readers.
​
I’m an independent author, a parent, and a longtime reader of middle grade fantasy. I write the kinds of books I’d want in my own kids’ hands: immersive, challenging, and genuinely enjoyable.

If you’d like to explore the world, the best place to start is the first book in the series.
