I worked as a freelance reporter for a local newspaper for five years before giving it up to pursue my dream of completing my novel. I published a book of love poems, entitled "Masquerade of Love" and a novel, "East Shore Babe".  My influences are Jackie Collins and Janet Evanovich. All my writings are influenced by my heart and soul. Being a New Yorker...I will never forget 9/11 and all the men and women that lost their lives trying to save others.

I'm a graduate from the Writer's Digest School.
My biggest achievement was having my article on the front page of The Staten Island Register.
My biggest achievement, (and I'm not talking about a certificate or an award) is watching both my children grow and work hard on their continuing dreams.

When I'm not editing or writing, I can be found at my daughter's softball games or listening to another song that my son composed both the lyrics and music. Currently I am searching for a literary agent for three novels that I have completed. I reside in Staten Island, NY with my two teenage children and my cat, Whiskers.
