About This Site

Hi there, I’m a mom and share about daily life as a family affected by autism. I’m married to a wonderful husband and live with my family in the Northern Virginia/DC area.

I’m also a graphic artist with a focus on stationery and pattern design. In 2021, I became a children’s book author! I wrote and illustrated a story to help my autistic son understand why he couldn’t go to school during the pandemic.

Faith is also important to me. I grew up Catholic and love Jesus. Our family belongs to a non-denominational church with a special needs ministry.
