When I'm not writing, I work as a Sonographer. It was a great career to work in while I finished college with a degree in photography. My goal was to get my Master's degree in Bio-communication and become a Medical Illustrator. I was lucky enough to find a job right out of college as a Medical Photographer for a plaintiff's law firm. Interesting work. Truck wrecks, plane crashes, malpractice, electrocution, you name it. As a photographer I saw some pretty awful stuff and worked in the field for seventeen years. I decided to go back to sonography about fifteen years ago.
The Magdalenes won first place in fiction at the San Antonio Writer's League and was a five star Reader's Favorite. I've traditionally published a women's fiction novel, Dance Like You Mean It. It was a finalist in the humor category in the 2017 Best Book Awards by American Book Fest and is being shopped by a movie agent now. I've self-published two YA novels, Surviving Life and Snow Globe.

The horror of the assault…
The horror of the assault with all its underbelly of ignorance and Catholic bigotry is totally engaging and appallingly accurate.
Horrific and poignant
Horrific and poignant, a pacy read
