I was physically, emotionally, sexually and verbally abused as a child.  Both my parents were alcoholics and partied just about every weekend.  So they really didn't have time for my brother and me.  Looking for a father figure I  encountered a man who raped me from age 12 to or 15 years of age.  My stepfather's sister had me prostituting for her at the age of 15 until I was 22.  I married an alcoholic and lived again a very abusive life with him.  When I turned 25-years old I figured this was not the type of life I wanted so I went out seeking help.  I have been in therapy with Dr. Frances Cress Welsing, MD and Michael Gillooly, L.C.S.W.-C for over 15-years.  I'm much better from the therapy and writing my healing journal for which the book started out to be, but most of all I have had a lot of support from a small group of dear friends which I call my extended family.

A 2005, graduate of the All-Faith Seminary under Rabbi Joseph Gelberman in NY City, NY. Volunteer at a Maryland Hospice and a Sexual Assault Unit and I also volunteer as a hospital chaplain at Calvert Memorial Hospital in Prince Frederick, MD.

I am finishing my first unit in the Clinical Pastoral Education Program at the Washington Hospital Center. This class helps you to become a better hospital chaplain.
