the book

One of the most meaningful creative undertakings of my adult life was writing the manuscript that became my 2022 memoir, Swimming With the Blowfish: Hootie, Healing, and One Hell of a Ride. It took me years to believe I had a story worth sharing—and even more time to shape that story into something clear, honest, and readable after I began writing in the fall of 2017.
