I was born in Huntington on Long Island in New York. Raised by a single mother, I have lived with a debilitating joint disease called Larsens Syndrome. The disease has attacked not only the joints in my legs, feet, arms and hips but also my ears which forces me to wear hearing aids. In spite of my disability I maintain a relatively active life surrounded by friends and family. When people ask me what I do, I often answer I'm a writer. Although, i'm not published, I'm dedicated to perfecting my craft on a daily basis in order to one day reach that goal.
And now for the resume sounding portion>>>> In addition to my writings, I have been a Marketing and Sales Professional in many different industries including entertainment, media, retail and healthcare. My years in those various industries have equipped me with the necessary knowledge to help guide and assist the companies I've worked for and the departments I've worked in. As a team member, I've been afforded the luxury of training in many different fields which allowed me to effectively help my clients grow their business as well as point them in a direction that furthered their knowledge and education through career development.
One of my main goals is to live a life that isn't dictated by one facet of who I am. Rather, I'd like to believe that I can live a life where when I look in the mirror, I will smile and say I'm happy. My happiness comes from the love I feel for my family and friends, and from giving back to my community and those around me. Most importantly though, my happiness is gained by appreciating and giving thanks for all that has been placed in my path. I'm not a Pulitzer prize winning writer. I've never been the top employee in any company. I AM happy being me though!
