Let's get personal
About Me
I am a writer, librarian, and occasional poet from the Greater New York Area. Currently, I spend my time as an academic, electronic resources librarian for an institute of higher education, as well as a spouse, parent, and all around regular individual attempting to navigate my way through this world (no easy task, as I'm sure you know).One of my biggest loves is writing. I love writing fantasy, science fiction, contemporary (sometimes paranormal) romance, and horror. Currently I'm working on a number of different works, and I can't wait to bring them to you all!
In general, I enjoy reading pretty much anything, though especially science fiction and supernatural adventures, and comfy romance novels. I'm also both a console and tabletop gamer, a frequent member of the #WritingCommunity on BlueSky and Instagram, a consummate introvert, and a nonbinary, genderfluid delight. I'm pronoun neutral, so anything goes, but she/they are what I hear the most.
