Hi and thank you for clicking into my website. I'm a writer and have published seventeen books and many articles and poems for children of all ages. I am an active member of my local and national Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI) and an active council member of the Rutgers University Council of Children's Literature. In a previous life, I spent fifteen years in corporate Human Resources in a variety of roles all involving writing and staffing. My formal education includes an undergraduate degree in Psychology and Business and a Master's Degree, with distinction, in Industrial Psychology. I am a graduate of the Institute of Children's Literature and reside in New Jersey with my husband, children and three furry rescues.

Authors are just people like you. This is how I got started...

I love bugs and spiders. Once while visiting Costa Rica, I took a scary night hike in the jungle
with tarantulas all around me.
