Michelle is a Merchant Mariner by the demands of her bank account, born and raised in Denver, Colorado. A true eclectic, she's a woman of land, sea, and a lover of the air. Over the years, she has lived in New York, Northern and Southern California, as well as several months in Southeast Texas and Saipan. She has sailed tens of thousands of nautical miles and driven nearly as many through the United States.

All of her stories are deeply human and steeped in empathy, exploring themes of personal growth and deconstruction. Oh, and she promises to never kill the horse.
