I am currently working on several picture book manuscripts and other stories for young children including a chapter book and middle grade novel. I am a member of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators and was selected to be a mentee in the 2016 Rutger’s University Council in Children’s Literature One-on-One Plus Conference and the first NJSCBWI Advanced Picture Book Mentorship program. I am also a published poet with an M.A. in Creative Writing from CUNY Queens College. Let’s go Mets!
