Author bio:

I like to make up songs about what I'm doing to the tune of songs I know. There is a video of me on YouTube singing "Don't you hate Vista, don't you hate it, YES," to the tune of Human League's "Don't You Want Me."

After a successful career as a web designer and social marketing consultant, I decided I had enough. Currently I am pursuing a career in writing, and am working in retail because it's the only job that doesn't follow me home at the end of my shift. Although I spent much of my time as a web designer working sixteen-hour days and beating my head against my keyboard, I learned a lot about online marketing. I'm putting that knowledge to use in my quest to master the epublishing world. My first short story, "Moon Prayer," is currently available on Smashwords and will soon be available on the Nook, Kindle, and other ereaders.

When I'm not writing, I'm either reading, playing video games (I'm addicted to The Sims 2), or obsessing over the latest episode of Grey's Anatomy.

I live in Waterbury, CT with my parents, sister, fiance, and our two cats.
