I have always loved words and have had the good fortune to embrace the rules of grammar and usage easily from a young age.

Studying several languages in addition to my native English helped me understand how deeply the effectiveness of our communication depends on the culture in which our verbal and written language develops.

Reading Don Quixote in both English and the original Spanish, as well as translating poetry between the two languages, deepened this understanding.

My first book, Defyning Moments: Lessons from an Ordinary Life, is published by the Professional Women's Network.

I am a co-author of Breaking Free: Overcoming Self-Sabotage, also published by the Professional Women's Network.

The book manuscript for Animals Know! What Animals Teach Us, will be submitted in 2014 for publication.

I've had the great honor of being interviewed on television, radio, and in print, and have written editorials and columns for a variety of publications.

Check out my contributoins to the Electrical Contractor Magazine which is the Official Publication of the National Electrical Contractors Association.
