As a child, I escaped into stories. As an adult, I escape into stories when I read, and when I write.
A veteran of the United States Army, I was an educator for the Los Angeles School District in various capacities for thirty years. An active member of professional writing organizations, I have two eBooks published by a small press. I now live on the Big Island of Hawaii and have a sweeping Historical/Romance in the works.
