Hi, I’m Will! I grew up in Newport, Washingtonβ€”just north of Spokaneβ€”where I once dreamed of becoming a criminal psychologist. After earning my Criminal Justice degree from Gonzaga University, I realized I preferred telling stories about people rather than analyzing them.

My love of storytelling began early during an internship at my hometown newspaper, The Newport Miner.

These days, I live just outside of Seattle with my husband and an ever-expanding Lego collection. I like to think of it as a sound retirement investmentβ€”though it’s possible I’ve also mastered the art of sneaking new sets into the house and insisting, β€œWhat? I’ve had that one forever.”

When I’m not writing, you’ll probably find me kayaking around the Puget Sound, sipping a Mai Tai while pretending it’s sunny, or watching The Golden Girls for the millionth time. I’m also a proud member of the Chipotle Rewards Program and perilously close to earning that elusive free side of guac.
