Books By This Author

🐇How does your background in psychology influence the way you write complex characters and thrilling plots?
First, lots of my books are drawn from real cases or experiences. But as a whole, my role as a psychologist gives me a unique perspective into character development. The same skills that made me a successful psychologist, also make me a good writer-to get inside the psyche of another person. The ability to set aside my own thoughts, ideas, and prejudices in order to view the world through someone else’s lens.

🐇Describe your newest book, One In Four, in three words.
Murder. Addiction. Trauma.

🐇As a big fan of Big Brother and reality TV, could you share what inspired One In Four?
Honestly, I just like the idea of someone dying on camera with everyone watching and the fallout afterward.

🐇Do you find it challenging to write about sensitive topics like addiction and childhood trauma?
I’ve lived in this world both as a writer and psychologist for so long that I’m very desensitized to writing and/or talking about tough subjects. It used to be uncomfortable for me, but I’ve done it so many times that I’m very comfortable in these spaces. I exist in sensitive topic land:)

🐇What do you hope for reader’s experience or feel after reading One in Four?
Like they just got off of a rollercoaster.

🐇How has your writing process grown, and what excites you most about starting a new book?
I approach each book with the motivation that it’s going to be the best one.

🐇How do you find balance when writing about heavy subjects?
I do lots of running and hiking.

🐇What advice do you have for aspiring writers?
Never give up. Just keep writing. Write shitty first drafts.

🐇What’s next for you after One In Four? Any new projects in the works?
My next audio thriller comes out 10/21/25 and I’m so excited for it!
