My life’s journey has planted me in various places throughout the country over the last fifty years–New Orleans, New York City, Ann Arbor, Houston, Malibu, Philadelphia, Santa Barbara, Boston, Washington D.C., and Jacksonville (also, a study abroad year in Florence, Italy, too!). Whether years or mere months, each city has left a mark on me in special and peculiar ways.

Along the way, God has given me a beautiful family: Tyler, Hannah, and Madalene. He has also given me creative writing ideas that eventually turn into books. While unsolicited, these books are totally welcomed as they inspire, excite, and challenge me in a hundred different ways. May theses stories and devotionals impact you as well, wherever you are in your journey!
