A Jersey-girl through and through, Kieran grew up in Montvale, New Jersey, and attended Pascack Hills High School where she was a cheerleader, singer, actress and occasionally a student. She attended Rutgers University, graduated with a double-major in English and Journalism and now resides in Ridgewood, New Jersey in her very own bachelorette pad.

When not writing, Kieran spends her time at the movies, watching the WB, going to the gym and taking random classes at local schools to keep her brain functioning. Kieran has written more than thirty books for children and young adults under various pseudonyms, including editions of the popular series Charmed, Alias and coming soon, Everwood.
