: About Me

I'm a full-time professional freelance writer, author and speaker with a background in health information management and travel. My work has appeared in both print and electronic media.

As a cancer survivor, I write and speak on the importance of early detection and patient advocacy. My articles have appeared in Breast Cancer Wellness and Coping with Cancer Magazine.

I'm currently under contract for my second non-fiction book and continue to write my fiction novel based on my travels, especially the six years I spent in Italy.
