I am passionate about working with you to create and preserve fact-based, biographical records for future generations to treasure.​ I offer clients my training as an historian, excellent writing skills, research experience, careful eye for detail, and most of all, my compassion for the human experience. In my work, I uphold the standards and best practices set out by genealogists and oral historians.

In addition to having online access to records and collections across the United States and Canada, I am also in close proximity to the Library and Archives of Michigan in Lansing, as well as Ingham County records in Mason, Michigan, and other mid-Michigan repositories. I am also familiar with the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah, and the Allen County Public Library Genealogy Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
