I'm a writer, photographer and editor based in Austin, Texas. I work full-time in the communications and marketing department at Texas County & District Retirement System as the lead content creator and storyteller. I earned my bachelor's degree in English, Creative Writing and Sociology from Southwestern University and my master's degree in Criminology and Human Behavior/Psychology at Regis University. I have had hundreds of freelance articles and photographs published by Austin.com, Austin Woman Magazine, Georgetown View Magazine (now defunct), Hill Country View Magazine (now defunct), Next Tribe Magazine, PictureCorrect.com and more.Other facts: I feel most at home in my hiking boots and would likely survive a zombie apocalypse.
