By day Jennifer is a certified digital marketing professional and by night, she is an author.  In a former life she worked as both a technical publishing coordinator and educational professional, having taught at both the middle school and collegiate levels for almost a decade. She has a Bachelor's of Arts in English with a writing minor from Kent State University and a Master's of Education from Baldwin Wallace University.

​

One of her childhood dreams was to be a published author. Some of her first attempts were on an automatic typewriter. Many decades later, she participated in NaNoWriMo 2013 with her 8th grade ELA students and watched her dream come true. What resulted from a month long of daily writing was a 91,000 word novel! After student approval, she self-published her first book, The Prophecy: The Lucia Chronicles Book 1, in January 2014, using Amazon's Print on Demand publishing service: CreateSpace (now KDP).

 

Jennifer primarily writes YA in the science-fiction/fantasy genre, but has also been known to write whatever strikes her fancy. She has conducted programs and workshops about her books, NaNoWriMo, and the writing process.

​

Besides writing, she enjoys yoga, reading historical fiction mystery books, playing golf, taking her dog for long walks, and watching Doctor Who, Gravity Falls, Harry Potter, and various home renovation and paranormal shows. She has lived her entire life in the greater Cleveland area.
