I grew up and was educated in New York City with a degree in French Literature and music before moving to Arkansas. Before landing a job as a reporter/photgrapher and then editor of an Arkansas county newspaper, I was a waitress at a Clarksville truck stop and have since been tipping wait staff really well.During David Pryor's terms as governor, I was hired by Senator Max Howell as the Legislative Information Officer for the Senate, writing speeches, researching newly enacted laws, educating the public about new laws and the process of introducing and passing new legislation, and acting as liaison with the Capitol Press Corps. During then-governor Bill Clinton's administration, I was the Media Specialist for the Governor's Office of Voluntary Citizen Participation. I later became Assistant Director of the Arkansas Endowment for the Humanities, assisting individuals and groups with the AEH grant process and helping them develop their projects.I was a Senior Claims Manager for 15 years at a Little Rock personal injury law firm, negotiating settlements with insurance companies for our clients.For the past five years, I have turned my attention to freelance writing.I write just about anything for the Internet: website content, blogs, online newsletters, news articles, feature articles, press releases, copywriting, and more. Subject areas include but are not limited to domestic and international travel, personal injury law, criminal law, elder abuse, organic gardening, culinary herbs, retail businesses, wedding planning, cooking, marketing and social media.In 2016 I published a children's picture book entitled, "Bobby the Blue-Footed Booby Gets Bullied," which focuses in a fun way on children being bullied at school, the specialness of each individual child, and a section on animals (some endangered) in the Galapagos Islands.I volunteer at the Little Rock Zoo as a docent, handling our ambassador animals and teaching the public about species survival, conservation, the changing mission of zoos, and animals' extraordinary adaptations.

Book AuthorSelf-Employed 2016 - PresentLittle Rock, Arkansas AreaI have written and self-published a 40-page children’s picture book for ages 4-8 on bullying entitled, “Bobby the Blue-Footed Booby Gets Bullied”. It takes place in the Galápagos Islands. Although the main message is about bullying and what children should do about it, it also touches on acceptance, goodness, kindness, animal conservation and even a bit of zoology. I have tried to characterize the personality of the book’s animals in a way that highlights some of their innate adaptations. For more information on my interests in bullying and conservation and/or how to order the book, please go to: https://www.facebook.com/bulliedbooby.
