I am a writer and producer living in Los Angeles with my husband and three cats Willow, Mina, and Charlie. We rescued our furry family members on the streets of Hollywood: They were all in dire need of care, love, and a home. Willow came into our lives in two thousand sixteen as a stray kitten, and she was our first black cat.

I learned that these beautiful felines are seen as evil or bad luck, still to this day?! Looking into her big loving eyes, I knew, together, we could change the narrative that is hurting black cats. She is the inspiration for “Willow’s Tale”, the children’s picture book series and cartoons. And she’s on a mission to share her happy tales with the world!
