Born in Rockville Centre, New York in 1961 then moved to West Sayville. After more than 20 years as an Intellectual Property Paralegal and single mom to sons David and Danny, I expanded my writing career from part time poet to novelist. I am inspired by incredible women to write about incredible women, and share insight into bonds of friendship and loyalty. I am also the author of "In the Line of Duty-The Bravest," appearing in Mythology of the Heart, part of Letters from the Soul, Copyright © 2002, which was dedicated to all the unwavering individuals of September 11, 2001, and for which I received the Editor's Choice Award.
