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 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.
