Hi there! I’m Steph, a young adult author who writes stories about unique friendships, self-discovery, and the unexpected twists life throws at us as we try to find our place in the world.

 

I’ve always had a passion for reading, and writing became my outlet for the stress in my everyday life. Inspiration strikes in the most unexpected places—whether it’s the music I listen to, the wild dreams I can’t forget, or the people I meet along the way. My stories focus on characters who face tough decisions but find strength and resilience in their personal journeys.

 

I’m also proud to say that I was the first in my family to attend college, where I earned a degree in graphic design. My background in design has given me a unique perspective on storytelling, and I often find myself thinking visually as I write.

 

In addition to my writing, I’ve volunteered as the social media coordinator for a writing contest, where I gained valuable experience in connecting with a broader audience and engaging fellow writers. I’ve also worked with critique groups, and I’m fortunate to have a trusted network of people I can rely on for feedback and guidance when needed.

 

Though I have several manuscripts in varying states of completion, I have at least four that are query-ready, and I’m eager to find a literary agent who can champion my work and be my partner in crime (metaphorically speaking, of course!).

 

When I’m not writing, you can find me fishing with my family, tending to my garden, baking something sweet, binge-watching Asian dramas, or playing mom to two teenagers, a German Shepherd, and an English Bulldog who’s definitely more toddler than dog.

 

I’m excited to one day share my stories with the world and connect with readers who resonate with the journeys I write—after of course finding the right literary agent to help bring my work to life!
