I was born in Camp Kilmer, New Jersey in an army hospital because my father, Romeo, was serving in the United States Air Force. I received my elementary education at Saint Joseph School in Lodi, New Jersey. Much of my early years were spent at my grandparents and uncle’s Florist, where I enjoyed spending time with them and learned to appreciate the importance of family and flowers.

When I was thirteen-years-old my family moved to Fairfield, NJ, where I attended West Essex High School. After graduating high school, I went on to Seton Hall University to study business and political science. Additionally, I took various computer related courses. After college I landed my first job, working as a Systems Analyst for a major bank. After a career in banking, I worked for an internet-based recruiting company and held the position of Director.

I spent most of my career in the field of Information and Technology. Although throughout my career I wrote business and technical documentation and content for various websites, I finally fulfilled my life-long dream of writing a book(s).

Currently, I work as a substitute teacher, enjoying my interactions with students. My favorite subject is Language Arts, of course.

I’m a passionate reader and writer. I especially like to write fiction books primarily with young readers in mind (ages 10 through 14). When writing, I focus on a variety of topics including social issues, mysteries and science fiction. My first book is titled “School and My Bully Experience” and was published on December 21, 2019.

When suffering from writer’s block, I can be found at the Jersey shore, sitting on the beach, gazing at the ocean for inspiration.

One of my favorite things to do — dog sit for my daughter’s toy poodle, Peanut.

Peanut’s favorite food: Anything edible.

Peanut’s favorite activity: Running free in my backyard.

I have a wife (Bette), a daughter (Kris Ann) and a son-in-law (Peter) and live in Bergen County, New Jersey.
