That was then....

When I was a child, I would lock myself in my second story bedroom, for hours, recording my most intimate thoughts into my pink and purple padlocked journals. And on select days, if you peeked through the old, brass keyhole in my door, you would have most likely found me teaching writing lessons to all of my Cabbage Patch dolls and fluffy, stuffed animals. Looking back, it seemed quite inevitable that I would one day desire to work with writers of all ages, inspiring them to find their own voices through their personal written stories.

This is now....

After 15 years of inspiring students, fellow educators, and small business owners the power of using their words to spread their messages, I knew it was time to blend my love of the written word and motivating, upbeat leadership style into a writing coaching company. I no longer could keep this passion locked away...it was time to share The Writing Whisperer with the world.

As a writing coach...

Through private and group coaching sessions, you can find me diligently delving into the written word and inspiring others to do the same. Have you dreamed of crafting your memoir, penning your blog, writing that series of books for your business, or perfecting your next speech for that speaking engagement? Do you struggle with making the time to write and keeping consistent with your writing goals and routines? Coaching sessions provide the motivation, focus, and feedback needed for you to become that writer you have always wanted to be.

As an individual...

My friends and family describe me as an upbeat, forward thinking, and “on the go” individual. My husband tells me I need to learn to relax! I would describe myself as someone who loves to motivate others by helping them realize their passions in life, then sitting down to strategize how best they can achieve their dreams. When I am not moving and shaking, you can find me on my yoga mat, taking time to breathe, or out in nature, poking around in the dirt and leaves, trying to see what I will discover next. Life is full of unexpected and unknown journeys, and I want to experience them all!
