About Kari
Expertly disguised as an insurance underwriter by day, Kari is a storytelling mommy-superhero by night. A lifelong learner and active member of SCBWI, and 12x12 Challenge, Kari is a Children’s Book Academy and Making Picture Book Magic graduate. She also has a Master of Business Management, as there was no degree available for pizza connoisseur.
Kari is a published poet, but she is most enthralled with writing funny and witty picture book escapades. Her first draft writing process is fast and furious to get stories out of her head, which of course makes room for more! Her three cats are kind enough to share their home in California with Kari, her husband, and their two little girls.
