Born in Tonawanda New York, grew up in a small little village called Wilson, New York right on Lake Ontario. I have always loved to read and writing is a passion. In ninth grade my love of writing exploded and I was placed in charge of the school's literary magazine, which for a freshman is a huge deal. I have many different jobs but none as amazing as becoming an author, except for the one I carry every day which of course is being a mother of five amazing kids and a grandmother to two going on three granddaughters.
