About Me

 As a geologist and paleontologist, I study order in the natural world. As a writer, I explore chaos, the unnatural, and the dark, demented crevasses of the mind. I enjoy digging up fossils and burying dead bodies in a story. 

I have been studying geology and paleontology for over 15 years. I've dug fossils all over the Rocky Mountian region. I earned  an MS in Paleontology studying the growth rate of Mosasaurids. I am currently working as an invertebrate fossil preparator.  

Though paleontology and learning about the world is one of my great loves, another is horror fiction. My father handed me my first King book (The Stand) when I was thirteen and never looked back. 

I am currently working on a novel set in the Boston area about inheriting family heirlooms from creepy relatives.
