She is currently working on stories that feature darker themes, spooky settings, and plenty of moral dilemmas. When she’s not writing, she can be found watching horror movies, playing video games, or reading any book she comes across. The Montgomery Estate is her first novel.

The Montgomery Estate
High school freshman Claire is obsessed with the Montgomery Estate and the vicious torturing and killing of a prestigious family that happened within its walls nearly 100 years ago. When the last surviving member of the Montgomery family passes away, Claire decides to explore the house and uncover the truth behind the decades-old mystery. After a negative and humiliating interaction with Claire’s idols, a ghost-hunting group by the name of The Specters, Claire and her best friend Lizzie infiltrate the estate with a plan to prank the ghost hunters. But the abandoned house may not be completely cleared of the Montgomery family. And they may not like intruders.

"I sat down with this book expecting to just read a chapter or two before falling asleep, that is not what happened. There are so many unique twists and turns in this story that I completely lost track of time and read it in one sitting - not a common occurrence for one such as myself..."
