Renée has a Master’s Degree in Family Mediation, from LaSalle University and is a retired Family Advocate. She lives and worships in New Jersey with her husband of 37 years, who she states she would marry all over again and hopes to emulate her parents who were married for 72 years. She has four daughters and seven grandchildren, who make her life complete. Renée was the first to racially integrate her High School, in Northern Westchester County, NY where she wrote her first short story while in the 10th grade. Her teacher indicated that the story was excellent, however, refused to believe that Renee wrote the story and would not submit it. Subsequently, Renée stopped writing until the desire resurfaced 28 years later. She began writing plays for her community and has now stepped out on faith to complete her first mystery novel, a genre introduced to her by her late sister Jennifer. The scripture which inspired this book is from, 2 Corinthians 4:8-9 (KJV), We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed, we are perplexed, but not in despair, persecuted but not forsaken, cast down, but not destroyed. Look for her next up coming fiction, Get your Fight Back.
