I was born in Wakefield Massachusetts. My family lived in Somerville, a suburb of Boston. We lost my mother when I was 5 years old. This loss led to my love of books. I could forget the lonely feeling when I was engrossed in a good story. My mother was a creative person and even though I am not artistic like she or my father were, I do feel connected to them when I write.
My father instilled a dedication to hard work in everything my siblings and I did. It was important to him that we know the value of hard work and dedication.
I currently live in Lexington KY with my husband and three children. We moved in order to provide a better life for our children. I went back to school in 2010 and rediscovered my love of writing. With the encouragement of my husband, I earned a degree. My father's lessons stuck with me and I worked hard to become a member of the National Honor Society.
With my children growing up fast I realized I now have time to pursue my dreams. I have started writing a series of children's books based on my crazy family, and the amazing memories we have made together.
