A long-time believer in the power of story to change lives, Amy is an award-winning author and columnist, as well as a registered nurse at a busy hospital. Before I Saw You was inspired in part by her work with newborn and adult victims of the opioid epidemic, as well as the story of Moses’ birth mother, Jochebed. She lives near the countryside in central Indiana. When she’s not writing, she loves doting on her husband, three young adult sons, and their golden retrievers. If there’s leftover time after that, she enjoys DIY projects, gardening and reading.
