- I was born and raised in New Jersey, but I have lived in 4 other states across the country. I must admit, I miss the ocean. I am the mother of 3 sons and "an adopted" daughter who have blessed me with five wonderful grandchildren. Like many people, our pets - a cat and a dog - rule the house. I graduated from Brigham Young University - Idaho in December 2019 with a Bachelor's in Web Design and Development. I have a vivid imagination and love to weave stories. The more outrageous, the better I like it. I began writing at 13 as a way to cope with life's stress. I loved it so much, I kept it up. I had the privilege to speak to one of my favorite childhood authors. She gave me the advice to "Never stop learning. It will continue to open doors." Since then, I have continued to learn about many topics, none of which I’m an expert in. Writing is a subject that a person continually learns more, and I continue to hone my skills. I enjoy encouraging others to write their stories and explore their imaginations. My first published book, Asteria: The Discovery, was actually written for my middle son as an attempt to get him to read more. He was failing 7th grade English because he wouldn't read. His brother and I kept suggesting books we knew he'd like, but he refused to try them. I sat down to write a story about him and his best friend; and Asteria was born. It worked, by the way. He found his genre and continued on reading.
