About

Hi, I'm Kristen

I process this crazy world through storytelling. 

Every choice has a consequence, and I write young adult science fiction and fantasy to explore how our current choices may affect the near future.

My character-driven stories thrive on complex family dynamics set against the backdrop of decaying societies. Think dumpster divers and eco-terrorists, no princesses here.

But I also don’t write doom and gloom. My stories are action-packed page-turners with grit, hope, and even a bit of a love story because that’s what we all need.

If I was adrift in a spaceship with no hope of reconnecting with humanity, I would still write, because it keeps me sane (and less irritable). However, I’m very grateful that I’m not locked in a doomed vessel and can share my work with you instead!

My readers love my fresh take on tropes and unique spin on young adult, and I can’t wait for you to meet some of my newest characters.
