: About Me

I was born in Massachusetts and moved to Arizona at age 27. In 1997 I graduated from the University of Arizona with a B.A. in Anthropology then earned an Advanced Certificate in Paralegal Studies in 2004.

Currently, I live in Arizona with my husband, our 8 year old son and our 1 year old desert tortoises- Mike and Sally.

I have always loved to write and often receive praise for my written work. I have a lot to say and I'm not afraid to say it, but it comes out better when I write it.

By writing on Helium I hope to find a larger audience and test my writing skills. I am interested to see what I can do.

You can read more about me on myspace.com-the link to my page is right over there under "mylinks."
While you're there don't forget to read CHOCOHOLLYCA.

May you know peace.
