ABOUT ME

A 2025 Pushcart Prize nominee, I earned my M.F.A. degree from Queens University of Charlotte and my B.A. in English from Eckerd College. I'm a former science writer for various nonprofits, most recently Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in Washington, D.C. Now retired, I volunteer with the Volusia Turtle Patrol and the Marine Science Center of Ponce Inlet.

I’ve completed three novels: CITY IN A FOREST (2019), SNAKES OF ST. AUGUSTINE (2023), and THE TRAIN TO SANTA FE, which is forthcoming from Regal House Publishing in summer 2026. A fourth novel, now in progress, relates to sea turtle conservation.

My short stories and essays have been published by Pangyrus, Atticus Review, The Northern Virginia Review, Eckerd Review, Blackheart Magazine, Crab Fat Magazine, Gravel Magazine, and Dying Dahlia Review, and in the book Boomtown. Long ago and far away, I was a journalist.
