About a week before I retired from a career in the healthcare field in December 2019, a coworker commented that I should do something from my bucket list. I immediately replied that I would write a novel. I wondered why I had replied so quickly and with such conviction, as I hadn’t thought about writing a book since my adolescence. I took a few writing courses in high school and considered college and a career in writing, but decided to go to nursing school instead. I didn’t realize writing a novel was on my bucket list. Newly retired, I began to write just prior to the onset of the COVID quarantine. 

“Beneath A Blanket Of Snow” was released in July 2020. Due to the great reviews and feedback from my readers, I decided to keep writing. My second novel, “If We Had Known”, was released in April 2021. They are contemporary fiction dramas. In honor of the 50 year anniversary of my high school graduation, I wrote “1974 Redux: NEHS 2024 Reunion”, a story incorporating actual events, music, and culture of my high school years with a fictional account of the lives of the alumni.

I live in Pennsylvania with my husband Gerry. We have a blended family of five children and ten grandchildren. My hobbies include: Mah Jongg, word puzzles, yoga, piano, traveling, bicycling, volunteering at a clinic, and serving as local president of a charity.
