Beverly grew up in Bartlett, Illinois and has lived in the western suburbs of Chicago all her adult life. As a university undergrad, she spend four amazing years on the campus of Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, IL, in the cornfield locked center of the state. It was the fun and friendships she formed there that inspired her debut novel, Three Daves.
Her writing career began when she was responsible for writing and editing quarterly investment reports at the consulting firm Ennis, Knupp & Associates in Chicago. When she stepped out of the business world to stay home and raise her children, her writing took a more creative direction and she's never looked back.
