Though she has a degree in Fine Arts, her life is not as simple as a piece of paper. She has worked in retail management, web designing, and marketing to name a few of the realms of her experiences.

The pets in her life take precedence, as anyone with animals knows.

      In school, she loved to read fantasy YA books, and still does. Although she has moved into the realm of reading cozy and traditional mystery books after watching so many growing up. Her interest in history has a profound influence on her work and is evident in both her writings and art pieces, particularly in regards to the Victorian time era and Ancient Greece. Her interest in historical America comes vividly to life in her Murial Robertson mysteries, following the adventures of a woman in the 1880s. Currently, she has three books in the series, as well as working behind the scenes on a woman’s fiction novel and a steampunk/mythology series to be coming out in the near future.

Series Information:

My Murial Robertson series is about a woman living in the 1880s America during the tremulous Industrial Revolution where businesses were prospering at a level never thought of before. Murial starts out on the security team for her father, Senator Robertson, until a series of events occurring in the Territory of Arizona sets a new direction for her life. Since then, she owns and operates the old family farm alongside her Foreman, and cousin, Walter with the occasional help of other friends and family as the series progresses. One would think that such a life would be serene, but that is not the case for our main heroine as she is constantly being thrust into solving mysteries, murder, and even a touch of conspiracy plots. (Traditional Mystery/Historical Fiction)
