Profile

Rachel is anything but average. Even as a child, her strong-willed nature gave her parents a run for their money. She grew up as a rebel on roller skates and horseback, wanting to do whatever it took to go against the flow. As she discovered a love for writing, her path took a nontraditional route of self-education, novels filled with the love of God, and inspiration that came from pencils instead of a keyboard.

She’s a perfectionist, a lover of thunderstorms and Doritos, a sister, a loyal friend, and she tends to analyze just about everything. She knows all the ins and outs of being a single mom to cats, and spends her not-so-spare time involved in martial arts. Her day job is a full-time one in ministry, working for a non-profit organization that creates Bible-based resources for deaf individuals and families.

Between all that though, her heart is filled with an innate desire to share with others through works of fiction, poetry and devotionals. Her novels contain faith-filled messages in the midst of suspense, smidgens of romance and characters to which readers can relate – even if they live in a world of fantasy. Her shorter inspirational writings can cut to the quick or bring a tear of joy. Studying people and the way they think and feel gives Rachel the insights to write in such a way that creates an empathetic path to readers’ souls, whether it’s a piece of fiction or poetry.
