Author bio

Former entrepreneur who's left the "hustle" to do what I love most... write stories. Mom, living in Chicago with my husband, trying to be a good Muslim, working in my garden whenever I'm not writing, sometimes gardening while I'm thinking about my stories. I love cooking & baking, traveling, cappuccinos, and cats (even though I'm deathly allergic).
