Jodi is an author of Young Adult fantasy and historical romances, as well as being a black belt, and registered nurse. She lives with her husband, three sons and an evolving herd of undisciplined animals in Colorado. She has a well-earned fear of bears, but tolerates the Teddy and Gummy variety. She's been obsessed with books, both reading and writing them, for most of her life and prefers the written word to having actual conversations. The most current projected completion date of her To Be Read book collection is May 17, 2176.

She is the author of The High Crown Chronicles (coming 9/7/2020 from Clean Teen Publishing) and the Rum Runners series: A Shine That Defies the Dark (Rum Runners, Book 1) and The Light At Finnigan's End (Rum Runners, Book 2) from Changing Tides Publishing.
