Hello! My name is Ronesha. I’m a software engineer, author, and coding instructor from New Orleans, LA, currently living in Maryland. Since I was young, I always had two loves: coding and writing. Of course, at a young age, I didn’t know that when I was writing HTML and trying to build fansites for my favorite artists that I was doing something called “coding” and I had no idea that it could turn into a career. Interestingly enough, as life would have it, I was able to bring both of the things I loved as a child into my life as an adult.

I was born in rainy Manchester, UK, but I now reside in sunny Cantabria, Spain, beside a lake surrounded by crows! I share my home with many cats and a dog named Spike. When I’m not writing, I enjoy cycling and playing squash. I’m an award-winning children’s author and have been a primary school teacher for over fifteen years, teaching children in KS2 (ages 7 to 11) the British Curriculum.

I am an off-road enthusiast who has owned Jeeps my whole life. I’ve off-roaded in eleven different states. Do you know how to tell if a person drives a Jeep? Wait a few minutes, they’ll tell you. 🙂

Hi! My name is Tiara Deahn Thornton. I was born and raised in Alamogordo, New Mexico. I love animals. I have two cats named Ash and Ace.

I taught middle school math for 10 years before becoming a stay at home mom. I Have a Bachelor’s degree in math education and a Masters degree in Education. Educating children is my passion. I have worked with a range of children and love helping them discover their true potential.
