Writer, Reader, Ridiculous Amount
​of Chocolate Eater.

How many people get to do what they love? Since I was old enough to hold a pencil, I’ve loved writing. Today,  I’m fortunate enough to have two careers that give me the opportunity to write. By day, I write marketing copy and corporate communications for a company in the healthcare market. After hours I pen fiction.  I’m also a voracious reader and can sit for hours, preferably on a beach or by a pool, devouring good books.  

I live outside of Boston with my husband. I don't talk like a Bostonian, but some people still detect Southern California in my accent from the years I lived there. When I’m not writing or reading, I’m at the gym, running, or playing tennis, trying to burn off the ridiculous amounts of chocolate and ice cream I eat.

I Love Being by Myshelf Sometimes.
