When a child is diagnosed with cancer, his or her siblings may struggle with complex emotions such as confusion, guilt, and fear. Part story, part journal, Jamie s Journey: Cancer from the Voice of a Sibling helps siblings of pediatric cancer patients cope with those intense feelings. The first half of the book is about 13-year-old Jamie who describes the roller coaster of emotions she experiences when her 10-year-old sister, Jordan, is diagnosed with cancer. Jamie laments the loss of her normal teenage life and describes feeling forgotten as her family focuses on Jordan s medical needs. Jamie finds solace through journaling about her experience, and encourages the reader to write about his or her own journey on the pages provided in the book. Jamie’s Journey is unique in that it’s designed especially for the siblings of pediatric cancer patients.

I’ve written nine books, six are published and the rest are scheduled for release in 2027-2028. I moved around alot growing up. Books were my escape and a way for me to stay grounded, thus I’ve always been a voracious reader. I grew up in Taiwan and in California, later residing in New York and Shanghai with frequent travels to Singapore and business trips to Paris. I consider myself an immigrant and a traveler. Much of my writing is inspired by my journeys.

All of my work centers around building connections with viewers and readers through subjects that build emotional intelligence and awareness. I think a lot of that comes from the way I’ve always experienced the world. I’ve always been a very sensitive and perceptive person—not sensitive simply in the sense of being easily affected, but in the sense that I notice things. I notice subtleties in people, in conversations, in what is said and what isn’t said. I can walk away from a seemingly ordinary interaction and find myself thinking about something small that happened in it, wondering what was underneath it or what that person might have been feeling.

Hummer & The Boy is a beautifully illustrated story about friendship, devotion, love, and the bonds that remain with us throughout our lives.

When a young boy named Emmett encounters a solitary migratory Canada goose along the lakeshore near his home, he feels an immediate connection to the unusual bird. Naming him Hummer, Emmett returns to the lake again and again, and over the years, a remarkable friendship takes root. As seasons pass and Hummer faithfully returns, the goose becomes a steady presence through childhood, adolescence, and the many changes that accompany growing up.
