About The Author

Nancy Pahmiyer is the fifth out of seven children born to George and Theresa Santiago and grew up in Victoria, Texas.  As a youngster, she loved playing the piano, singing, and writing poetry and stories to entertain family and friends. Today she is a proud mother of three and grandmother of seven, and resides in Waco, Texas, with her husband Dale.

During working hours, Nancy is a design/drafting technologist specializing in floor plans and 3D design for residential remodels and new construction. 

Recently, she developed a deep appreciation for "tea time" inspired by her son's mother-in-law, Maggie Saari, who is an expert in the art and execution of high tea. This enchanting tradition sparked the creation of her delightful "Miss Maggie" children's tea stories, where she weaves together themes of friendship, storytelling and the joy of shared moments over tea.

She and her husband enjoy cooking, traveling, trying out new restaurants, and entertaining friends and family in their home. She has a deep faith in God and desires to share Christ's love through acts of service, Bible study, and prayer.
