She was a researcher and writer for Prevention magazine before she became a freelancer. She’s had hundreds of articles on nutrition and fitness published in consumer magazines and online, but she loves her fiction best of all–directing the lives of made-up people and stamping around in a puddle of theme.
Her favorite things include music, flash fiction, poetry, art, crab legs, Whose Line is it Anyway?, dark chocolate, photography, unique movies and novels, people watching and strong Irish tea. She has a master’s degree in psychology.
