About the author
Mary Kauffman was born into a military family in Sacramento, California in 1973. Life in the military took her all over the world to 13 countries, 14 schools and 22 states before even graduating high school. After earning a BA in Psychology and an MS in Leadership along with working in Communications and Retail Management, Mary found herself working in state government. Immersed constantly in new cultures and environments both in her youth and as an adult, Mary has been able to identify some things that are universal in human experience and capture the feeling from a child's perspective.
Mary lives with her family in WI and spends time working, raising a family, writing, exercising and finding humor in even the smallest moments. She is still pursuing higher education and studying the behaviors of the people and the details of the scenes that surround her everyday.
