Her hobbies include, reading, writing, baking, walking, swimming, and listening to a variety of music. Among her favorite authors are; Jan Karon, Adriana Trigiani, Max Lucado, and the late, Erma Bomback. While growing up in the country, a treasured time during the summer was hiking to the nearby bookmobile.’I have fond memories of walking inside and smelling the fragrance of the books and slowly feeling the crinkly plastic covers like they were gold, ‚ said Smith. ‚It was intoxicating.’Smith also enjoyed teaching Faith Formation to school children, working for a pediatrician and helping kids as a paraeducator. Eventually, she was inspired to write a middle grade novel about a young girl stricken with Guillain-Barre Syndrome. A few years later, after reading an article about her great-grandfather, it became her mission to write this book.’I feel the Holy Spirit was my co-author in both works, ‚ added Smith.
