I was born and raised in southern New Jersey and can call no other place home. I raised my son there and even attended Rutgers University – Camden Campus. I earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology mainly to help straighten out my own twisted thoughts. Throughout my life, I have always been fascinated by human emotions. It was not until my first diary at age twelve that I began to utilize written expression as my main means of emotional venting. I thoroughly enjoy the craft of writing and hope not to only teach but evoke emotion through words.

Book Excerpt
Manifest: I seem to have a dream, It doesn’t manifest to me. It comes in colors and streams. Billions of points in symmetry. I touch the points, Caress the streams, Marvel in the colors, It’s all still a dream. It doesn’t manifest to me. I close my eyes and press my brain, To get these thoughts out in plain, View. and make them whole. They dissipate as soon as my lids unfold, For I exist in my dreamless world.
