I am a singer-songwriter who started out writing lullabies for my children. While teaching music to preschoolers, I started transforming my lullabies into books for the children to take home as gifts. Now retired, I live in Pinehurst, North Carolina, where I enjoy creating through songwriting, illustrating, writing, and dancing.

What began as a way to bond with my children has blossomed into a passion for sharing my music and storytelling with my grandchildren and readers everywhere.

I have always loved dancing and joined a line dance class in 2009. It wasn’t long before I became a line dance instructor to share what I was learning on the dance floor in the Carolina Beach Music setting. During the pandemic years, I taught online with Facebook and posted to YouTube and enjoyed reaching friends old and new from around the world. My line dance tutorials have turned into a handy tool for my local classes that anyone can access.
