I am a graduate of the Pennsylvania State University, where I received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Education.  I also hold a Master of Arts Degree in History from West Chester University. For over thirty years, I have taught history at both the middle school and high school levels. I enjoy writing, and have written a number of historical papers and short stories. In 2001, I published my first novel.  In 2013 my latest novel, Trying Times, was published. I currently live just outside of Pottstown, where I enjoy exploring and writing about the area’s rich traditions and local history.
