I grew up on Long Island in NY, and began to write poetry at a very young age. I am a graduate of Elizabethtown College in PA, with a political science major. I am married to my best friend, John. We have known each other since the age of 15. We have three children together, Morghan our musical prodigy, Emily our bleeding heart for both people and animals, and Luke... our boy!! I have two dogs, Jedi, crazy man and Scruffy, my prayer partner. Our family attends Community Bible Church in Marietta, where I serve as a children's ministry coordinator. My passion is to bring all children into the presence of Christ. I, myself, only came to Christ 8 short years ago, but in that time He has done a huge work in my life and heart. I love the beach, and feel closest to God there. I have been truly blessed by Him, and those He has placed in my life to encourage me, mentor me and love me. To Him be the glory!
