Hi, I’m Bella! I’m a devout Catholic, a wife, and a writer with a heart for helping women grow in holiness, deepen their trust in God, and find true joy and peace through our Lord, Jesus Christ.

I believe that true freedom and joy come from saying “yes” to God, just as Our Lady did when she declared, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word” (Luke 1:38). This simple yet profound surrender is at the heart of my journey—and the mission of Her Heart Surrendered.

Through my writing, I seek to encourage and equip Catholic women to deepen their relationship with Christ, live out their vocation with confidence, and radiate His love in their daily lives. Whether you are discerning your path, growing in virtue, or simply longing for deeper intimacy with Jesus, I’m honored to walk this journey with you.

Let’s pursue holiness together, one surrendered “yes” at a time!

Current Projects

Right now, I’m working on a free e-book of affirmations to help Catholic women grow in faith and holiness.

I’m also working on a daily devotional, with 366 days of reflections for women based on Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition—my aim is for every reflection to bring you encouragement, ignite your faith, and lead you to God’s peace. This project will take the longest; when I have a rough time-frame, I’ll share it here!

Lastly, I’m in the process of writing my conversion story for the first time ever! I was brought to tears just writing it, and I’m eager to share it with you in the hope that it enkindles a renewed zeal for God in your heart. Keep an eye on our blog—I’ll be sharing it soon!
