Michelle was born and raised in Denver, Colorado. A true eclectic, she's a woman of land, sea, and a lover of the air. In the last ten years, she has lived in New York, Northern and Southern California, as well as several months in South East Texas and Saipan. Six years ago she dropped out of college pursuing a mechanical engineering degree and returned to sailing the wide ocean in the US Merchant Marine. In that time, she has sailed thousands of nautical miles and driven nearly as many through the United States. After becoming pregnant with her son and slowing down, she was reacquainted with her love of being artistic. Thus her love of creating was revived.

A true lover of fantasy, her debut novel will be her first original idea, born over fifteen years ago, finally come to fruition. A dark medieval trilogy where the protagonists are the world's antagonists, and they have to come to terms with their humanity and mistakes. However, Michelle has no intentions of being a single genre author, or artist.
