I'm an armchair detective and hobby historian who mainly writes true crime stories set in the Appalachian Mountains. In my day job, I'm a technical editor. For more than a decade, I was a trade press journalist covering stories for publications including Textile World and Furniture Today. I'm an Asheville native and an N.C. State graduate.
