I'm a reading specialist and award winning educator from Chicago. While living in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado for nine years, I spent time hiking on the trails with my Goldendoodle Charlie and friends, writing, working in a literacy program at the Boulder Public Library, and mentoring writers and teachers. I love visiting schools. My books combine STEM and Kindness. "Aliana Reaches for the Moon" a picture book that draws inspiration from the moon and the curiosity of children, inviting children to be creative, explore, and experiment. "An Accidental Hero: A Mostly True Wombat Story" a picture book told in the form of a newscast which skillfully balances the serious subject of forest fires with compassion and humor to help children navigate this important topic through the real events of 2020. I moved to Northern New Jersey in 2025 and am working on new projects. View more posts

Thank you, Lynette! I had tried to get a photo earlier that afternoon but there are a lot of trees in the way and then a huge cat was chasing something into a drainage pipe making a ruckus and it flew off. When I was back out, lucky for me so was the egret!

Thank you, Rosi! I was thinking about you today. I wondered if you’re still traveling and if you made it to all the baseball stadiums. Nice to hear from you.

You’re so welcome, Laura! What I love about this photo you took of the Great Egret is that the bird is perfectly symmetrical in this shot, and this can easily be turned upside down to reveal two sides of the bird and nature’s personalities, and it’s incredible! 🤩📸
