Big Pine Key, Florida

I was born in New York and raised in South Florida. I took a side trip for a few years to attend college in Tennessee, and had the pleasure of experiencing a different way of life. I finally landed back in my old neighborhood in the Florida Keys, and I intend to stay rooted here for a long time.

I have always been a storyteller since I was a girl. I often had children gathered around to hear the story of the day, straight from my imagination. So it was no surprise that my career path would lead me to teaching children to write. I believe that writing should not just be limited to language arts. In order to be successful in any subject, one must be able to express themselves clearly.

So here I am, I've come full sircle. I am retired and now have the time to pursue my dream to be a writer.
