I was born and raised in Northeast Philadelphia. I currently work as the Business Development Manager for Virtua Health in Souther New Jersey. My goal is to become a full-time writer. I have two books published, 'Natty Shortfellow: Destiny Revealed' and 'Intersecting Lives'. 'Destiny Revealed' is the first in a fantasy series (ala 'Harry Potter') and 'Intersecting Lives' is a murder/suspense book set in Philadelphia. I've just completed 'The Fall' the second in the 'Natty Series' and am putting the finishing touches on 'Engagement', my next murder/suspense novel, also set in Philadelphia.
