I am an avid roller coaster and amusement park enthusiast whose passion for the industry began at a very young age when my parents would take me to local amusement parks every summer. My fascination with the paranormal began at age eleven when I read Antonia Barber's "The Ghosts." Since then, I have been crafting my own ghost stories, sparking a deeper interest in the paranormal. In 2006, I became a paranormal investigator, which influenced me to write children's fiction books revolving around ghostly occurrences at amusement parks. I have also written three books on the history of amusement parks including Crystal Beach Park and a compilation of parks that operated throughout Western New York.
