Leaving high school, there were three things I wanted to do with my life—work in business, computers, and psychology, and that’s exactly what I did.

I earned her bachelor’s degree in business information systems and landed a job as a business systems analyst shortly before graduating. Woot! Business (check) Computers (check) and life was great. At least until the corporate executives made a few bad business decisions and the company went under.

So I went back to the drawing board—just one of my many excuses to go back to school (one of my greatest joys). This time, I tried my lot in psychology (check). The mind is a wonderful thing to waste…or is that terrible? Earning an advance degree in psychology, I hit the streets running.

As a counselor I helped young troubled girls. Later, became an instructor working toward social change. Around came summer vacation and I had nothing but time on my hands. Needing something to fill my time during the break, I took to writing. With my first novel, I donned on the title author.

I now write full-time, enjoying the job of my dreams.

Somewhere out there, there’s a statistic which says the average person changes careers seven times in their life. Well who cares about statistics? Not when there’s an imaginary world out there to capture on paper!
