My Story
My journey into genealogy began with a personal search—finding my mother’s birth family. She passed in 1985 never knowing her siblings, and I made it my mission to complete the journey she could not. Through courthouse research, archives, DNA analysis, and countless hours of investigation, I found all 5 of her siblings and uncovered their stories. That discovery changed my life and showed me the healing power of understanding where we come from.
Since that moment, I’ve devoted my life to genealogical research: uncovering lost branches, verifying lineage, interpreting DNA, documenting military service, and helping others connect with their ancestral past. Every family deserves to know their story—and I’m here to help you discover yours.
