Award-winning fiction: Fierce heroines. Big stakes. Romance, time travel, suspense, and a healthy amount of trouble.
Pediatrician, award-winning author, Krav Maga instructor, and lifelong believer that people deserve to walk in peace — whether that means knowing how to protect themselves or knowing their child is in good hands.
Medicine taught me to listen closely, explain clearly, and stay calm when things feel scary. Writing taught me how much perspective matters. Krav Maga taught me that confidence grows from preparation. They may look like very different worlds, but they keep coming back to the same thing: helping people feel informed, capable, and steady on their feet.
Board certification, specialty credentials, and a few black belts — presented without making you read a twelve-page CV.
Medicine taught me to stay calm when things get scary. Martial arts taught me that calm is something you can train.
