Amanda is a high school English teacher and the Outdoors Writer for Cooperative Living Magazine. She holds an undergraduate degree in German, English, and Secondary Education from Michigan State University, and a graduate degree in Creative Writing from the University of Denver.

Her work appears in four Chicken Soup for the Soul books, and her poetry, outdoor journalism, and nature photography have earned recognition from the Poetry Society of Virginia and Virginia Outdoor Writers Association. Her debut novel, An Expected End, was a semi-finalist in the 2024 Chanticleer International Book Awards.

When she isn’t writing, she enjoys hiking, walking, and standup paddle boarding with her dogs, as well as running and reading. A member of James River Writers and Virginia Outdoor Writers Association, she lives in Virginia with her husband; Archie the parrot; and two rescue dogs, Nacho and Soda, chihuahua mix littermates who rule the house. ;

I'm interested in thought-provoking, literary works that evoke powerful emotions and force readers to ask difficult questions and reexamine their perspectives.
