ARTIST/WRITER/COACH
Welcome. I'm a visual artist, novelist and writing coach.
I spent years as an international journalist -- as an editor and reporter for 10 years in Tokyo and London and as a travel writer for a year in Asia. I wrote stories on becak drivers in Indonesia, on island paradises in the Philippines, and on kids in juvenile detention in Seattle.
I loved this world, but also knew at the age of 29 that I needed to leave it to follow my calling to find my voice as a novelist and artist.
