Jori Vroom

With a background as a speech therapist, Jori understands the power of words—including those unspoken—which helps her craft relatable characters that readers can root for. A published author, Etsy shop owner, and proud “personal maid” to her husband, dogs, and two energetic sons, Jori carves out writing time in her lakeside town in northwest Indiana—often during unpredictable nap times, but always with humor, heart, and plenty of coffee.
