Growing up, Tauri wanted to be a variety of things: marine biologist, veterinarian, equine chiropractor, neonatal surgeon. All biological, all scientific.

Until she arrived at college and quickly discovered… she was horrifically bad at science.

But she also learned that she had a knack for writing, and a passion was ignited.

Since then, Tauri graduated from the University of Texas where she studied creative writing and psychology under Elizabeth McCracken, five-time author and James A. Michener Chair in Fiction. Immediately afterward, she joined the Writer’s Path at Southern Methodist University where she honed her skills under the tutelage of authors Suzanne Frank and Kay Honeyman. She works in real estate marketing by day and writes by… Well, any other time.

She lives in San Antonio, TX with her eighty pound German Shepherd mix, her satanic cat, and a small shred of intact sanity.
