Being a native New Yorker, my window was a kaleidoscope of color to a city that had an amazing mixture. If I wanted to go to Asia, I could just hop a subway to Flushing; Astoria was Greece; Brighten Beach became Russia and Poland was Greenpoint.
The city is a vibrant exciting place and opportunity to experience so many different cultures and have a variety of people from all over the world, which in turn gave me my lust for travel, people and what makes the world tick.
My career has been just as diversified as New York; consisting of the fashion, beauty, travel and theatrical industries. I consider myself a citizen of the world as I now hang my hat mainly in Europe with my husband and 14 year old son.
Perhaps from being in the theater since a child, a natural transition to write emerged. Writing articles began in college and after wards, copy writing for my employers. My published works have appeared in ezines and magazines in Europe and the United States with a focus towards beauty, fashion and travel.
Recent published works have appeared in:
The Circumference, The European, eHow, Think Fashion, International Living, FEBZ Magazine, Vezeo, Sentimental Magazine, The Diva Network, Venere Italia, Bearings, Girlfriend to Girlfriend, Cruise Headlines, Valley Scene Magazine, Bridal Network of Canada, Completely Woman, Mexicoxpat, Vacapedia.

A Summary of American Culture
Are the cultural differences in America much different than saying crisps as chips and chips as fries? America has been known as melting pot of people emigrating from every country in the world and those cultures developed into the America of today. Each region as well as in every major city a part of that culture thrives. The dominating culture in the nation is one of newcomers, foreigners continually developing the land.
