After teaching myself how to read at 2 years of age, my life was a Neverending story, revolving around books. As a teen I traveled the country by hitchhiking and adding to the smorgasbord of knowledge and interests taking the lead in my life. Becoming a naturalist, and forager and Explorer of the world, I then dove head first into animal nutrition. Working for a private label dogfood company for 10 years while raising children. By far the most challenging of my experiences thus far. Writing has always been a dream, and thus I turn the page on hopefully the next chapter in my life.
