I create biblical studies, narrative non-fiction, creative writing, original sheet music, and other content for independent learners and those who enjoy a good old-fashioned, longform blog post every week.
I am a writer, musician, composer, songwriter, biblical studies teacher, and ESL tutor who loves the interdisciplinary life. In my free time, you’ll find me reading middle-grade novels, hiking, sewing clothing, or volunteering as a Master Naturalists.
I have a B.A. in Music and Spanish from Converse University, a Master in Library and Information Science from the University of South Carolina, am TEFL.org 168-hour certified, and am working towards a Master of Divinity from Emmanuel Christian Seminary. I am a member of Delta Omicron.
