Bio:
I'm an author/illustrator in Northern CA. My titles include: THE SLEEPING GIANT: A Tale From Kaua'i and CAN YOU CATCH A COQUI FROG? by Vera Arita. My poetry may be found in the middle-grade anthology, AN EYEBALL IN MY GARDEN And Other Spine-Tingling Poems. Besides writing and painting, I love design, printmaking, dancing hula with Na Lei Hulu I Ka Wekiu, hiking and traveling with my family.
