I’m a children’s book author who loves storytelling, travel, and turning real-life places into adventures for kids. When I’m not writing, I’m usually dreaming up new story ideas, visiting bookshops, or convincing myself that coffee counts as a personality trait. My first book, Hilton’s Island, has sold over 3,000 copies and can be found in more than 20 local stores. As a side job, I am also a cellular biologist who has worked in the field of orthopedic research for over 43 years! Yikes, I guess that makes me old! My husband and I split my time between Connecticut and Hilton Head Island where both my children with their spouses and my grandchildren live
