Max Reid

I was born in Warwick, South Manchester, Jamaica, the ninth of twelve children raised in a strong Christian home filled with love, prayer and perseverance. I quickly learned the value of hard work and the importance of never giving up. Those values carried me across oceans to the United States, where I built a career as a Mortgage Underwriter for one of the nation's largest mortgage companies. Today, I embrace my true calling and cause as an author and creator. I design books for children and adults alike - stories that inspire, puzzles that challenge, coloring books that soothe and activities that bring families together. My goal is simple: to create with purpose, to bring joy, and to remind every generation that faith and imagination can light the way. I seek to bring encouragement and hope to families and children. I believe these stories and activities can do more than entertain - they can plant seeds of faith, spark imagination and remind us of God's purpose in our lives - so keep dreaming, keep believing. Even when the path is uncertain, faith and perseverance will carry you forward. Growing up in Jamaica, I held on to those dreams, and they took me farther than I ever thought possible. Now, as an author and creator, I want every child and adult to know the same truth: no dream is too small, no hope too fragile when faith is your foundation. When I am not writing or working, I find peace in the simple things - like long walks with my faithful dog Louie, in Hampton, Georgia, where we make our home.
