B.S. in Psychology, Framingham State University, 1989
I grew up in Pennsylvania in the sixties/seventies/eighties and now reside just outside Boston Massachusetts. After attending six different colleges and studying many different subjects (art, electronics, computer science, psychology), I earned a B.S. in Psychology from Framingham State University and later in life, an M.A. in Human Relations, Specializing in Holistic Counseling Psychology, from Lesley University (psychology is one of my passions).
I discovered my love for writing and storytelling as I read books to my children. On a whim, I started telling them ad-hoc stories, and that lead to me writing premeditated ones (they liked those better). I work as a software engineer, which I love, but there are few things I love as much as sitting down to craft language and bring my characters and their world to life.
I’ve written a number of other novels, but Misfit’s Magic holds a special place in my heart -- I've been somewhat of a misfit all my life.
