I’ve loved making up stories for as long as I can remember. When I was a kid, I’d come up with all kinds of characters and adventures, and every now and then I’d actually write them down. Growing up on comics, movies, anime, manga, and books played a huge role in shaping the kinds of stories I love today, especially ones with complex characters, emotional struggles, and worlds that feel alive. That love of storytelling led me to create Avatars of the Pantheon, my first series. It starts with a group of ordinary girls who suddenly find themselves caught up in events far bigger than they ever imagined. At its heart, the series is about the characters, their growth, their relationships, and how they deal with being thrown into an epic and unpredictable world.
