Her work has appeared in anthologies such as: Tales From the Year Between Vol. 2: Under New Suns, Welcome to Simmins, Detective Spencer, Nature Fights Back, The Major Arcana, and Shatterlore: Myths of Past and Future. When They Arrived is her debut novel. Outside of writing she is a voracious consumer of knowledge and a four-time recipient of the cat distribution system (with a 3:1 tux to tabby ratio).
