I am a natural 1200 wpm speed reader and the author of twenty-three self-published novels including the free ebook "Life, Love, and a Polar Bear Tattoo" which has had over 400,000 downloads.
In my spare time, I read, run, swim, crochet, take care of my cat Pearl, and play drums and clarinet. Generally not all at once.
I only record books here if I absolutely love them and hugely recommend them. I definitely read more than you see here. :)

I was born and raised in New Jersey in a very close-knit family. For most of my childhood, we lived within walking distance of both sets of grandparents and saw them almost every day. I majored in Education in college and taught middle school for four years before deciding to attend law school. I practiced law until 2012 as an in-house Litigation Counsel for a large corporation. At that time, I decided to embrace my creative side and switched my focus from writing trial briefs to writing novels, and I never looked back.

I love sharing my stories and hearing from readers, so please don't hesi
