Born in Denver, CO, Ann began her writing career as editor of her high school paper. Growing with her desire to put pen to paper, she went on to compose several OpEd pieces, created policy documents, write grant proposals, and carry along a captive audience with her Denver online column, My Midlife Crisis . "Writing is very cathartic to me. It helps me process the world around me and hopefully helps others to make sense of it, too." After serving as a regular columnist for YourHub.com, Ann is currently working as a Freelance Writer in Seattle, WA, writing novels and enjoying time with her family and ever-faithful labrador, Rocky.
