As the biological product of an astronaut and an artist, Karin was born with the gift of daydreaming and the inability to solve math problems in her head.

Her debut novel, the King's 100, released in July of 2020 through Immortal Works Press and was selected as the Indie Author Project’s 2021 YA Winner for the state of Ohio. She enjoys chocolate-covered peanuts, uninterrupted sleep, and singing. Karin lives in Indiana with her husband, daughter, son, cat, and dog.
