Wendy Wilson Spooner is a professional Genetic Genealogist by day, a writer by night, and an artist in between. After receiving a bachelor's degree, she moved on to a graduate program at the University of London in Genealogy and Documentary Sciences. As well, Wendy has received advanced certificates in both Forensic and Genetic Genealogy. Her love of what we can learn from personal histories compels her to write the true stories she unearths. She writes with the purpose of showing how overcoming obstacles in our lives helps us grow closer to God and know that we are his children. Wendy also writes to show we are the descendants of remarkable people who paved the way for us-even if they really struggled. She believes in learning from our ancestors, honoring them, and then standing on their shoulders to become someone even better. Most of all, Wendy loves to write people's stories-true history-because everyone has a tale to tell.
