A former corporate publications editor and writer, she is an editor and award-winning writer. As a children's book author, she has written many books for kids and teens, and she loves coaching writers and speaking at writers' conferences. She earned a Master of Fine Arts degree from National University, and a bachelor's degree in public relations and journalism, cum laude, from Utica College.
