She has received support from the Elizabeth George Foundation, the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities, the Sewanee Writers' Conference, and Catapult. A former independent bookseller and public school teacher, she was born and raised on a small family farm, where she told her stuffed animals stories and sometimes locked herself in the corncrib.

She now lives in Washington, DC with too many books and only two cats.
