Thank you for visiting! I’m so pleased to make your acquaintance.

I’m involved in a variety of activities and most have to do with domestic abuse, domestic violence, trauma and human trafficking. I write about these topics (both fiction and nonfiction), I speak about my survivor experience and also provide domestic abuse training and DV/Abuse Healing Coaching. I’m a Certified Domestic Violence Advocate in the State of Oregon, an abuse survivor consultant and am the founder of the Survivor Voices Committee for the Family Justice Center of Washington County.

I am the current President of Cascade Christian Writers (formerly Oregon Christian Writers). I also speak at writer’s conferences on writing and marketing topics, as well as facilitate a once a month online writing group for Christian writers – including some who write for the general market.
