About the author

I believe we can all accomplish what we aim for if we persist in the face of obstacles. Even if your goals seems out of reach for now, they are not. There is always a path to your goals, even if at first glance it seems riddled with thorns.

This is what my stories are primarily about. Something we can all relate to is the need to overcome obstacles.

I write so that children and adults can understand the stories. Adults often forget what they are truly capable of. I hope that my stories motivate you to have the courage to pursue your vision, even when the odds are stacked against you - and most of all, to encourage the children.

If you enjoy my stories please consider writing a review for them.
