Born in 1979 and raised in New Jersey, she is a nurse since 2008. She has been writing poetry since the age of twelve and has compiled ten books in the past two years. Two of her books, Birdsongs of Poetry and Birdsongs of Poetry 2 are mostly composed of her earlier works. They are a collection of poetry that entails personal reactions to her father's drug-addiction and ultimate demise, teenage love and/or infatuation, confusion about life and misguided angst in general. Since she has had a dysfunctional childhood, she's used writing as a sort of inexpensive therapy, with pretty good results.

Her next two books of poetry, Waking Spirit Dreams and Waking Spirit Dreams 2, are mostly composed from more recent works, many of which have been written over the past 3 years. It is only since early 2012, she has truly come to realize who she is and why she was was so hurt and angry most of her life. She held onto a lot of anger and misunderstanding from the past that needed to be let go of. Then she was miraculously healed by conversations with a friend. Now, she no longer carries issues from the past or worries about the future. She lives in the moment. Since she was 'saved' from a life of suffering and depression, She wanted to share her experiences in this regard with the world. She has written a self-help book about her healing experience called The Artistry of LIFE: Knocking on the WHITE DOOR. She is currently working on her next self-help book in the series and planning to write 4 self-help books altogether based on personal experiences.

Her favorite form of poetry is the haiku. Out of these writings she has assembled a book of haiku called Heartwarming haiku. This book holds many haiku and senryu poems she has written along with an educational tutorial in writing haiku and senryu. This includes fun exercises on practicing the art of this little poem.

She has published an inspirational journal for your own writings called Notes From Another Self'. it is a 6x9 sized writing journal with blank pages bordered with an elegant frame and short inspirational quotes from her poems and personal journals.

She has written a chapbook of poems called Heartpieces Songbook. These poems/songs were written during a time of heartbreak and misery and used as therapy. She has shared these lyrics of the heart hoping they will perform the same function for others. Lastly she has written a children's book, called The Habits of Rabbits and a Chapbook of spiritual poems titled, Oranges & Sailboats.
