Hi!
I'm Cindy...

​​an award-winning writer and memoirist whose work explores the emotional terrain of parenting teens, mental health, and the healing power of rescue animals. My memoir, Mom Loves the Dogs More, and my blog, Like People, Like Pets, share stories from the space where compassion rebuilds what life breaks. I invite you into the quiet, powerful work of reconnection—between people, pets, and the parts of ourselves we’re still yearning to know.

When family falls apart, love-and a few rescue dogs-hold it together.
