Welcome! I’m an author-illustrator and puppet maker. Who loves creating silly stories with heart that spark imagination, bring joy, and laughter. My picture book series, Everyday Adventures with Molly and Dyslexia (Free Spirit Publishing, 2024), is inspired by my own journey growing up with dyslexia and is part of my ongoing advocacy mission. Through these stories, I hope to empower all children to be their own advocates and appreciate their unique strengths.  

​

Beyond books, I bring puppets to life in the stop-motion animation and theme park industries. From crafting animated figures and puppets for theme parks to contributing to films like Wendell and Wild (Netflix Animation) and Wildwood (Laika Studios), I’m passionate about storytelling in all its forms.

​

Currently based in Lancaster, PA. I hold a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Connecticut, where I created my short film, Partially Compensated (also inspired by my journey with dyslexia). This project has been featured in film festivals worldwide and has opened doors for me to advocate for neurodivergent children and a more inclusive world. ​
