I am married to my best friend. Together, we have four grown children and two grandsons. I am a part-time content creator, aspiring entrepreneur, and new author. I was born and raised in a small town in New Jersey but have resided in California since 1983. My core values include treating everyone, child or adult, rich or poor, of all cultural diversities with dignity and respect. I started community college at age 50 and graduated from Loma Linda University as a Marriage and Family Therapist.  One of my proudest accomplishments is being able to help over three and 350 individuals, couples, families, and groups become whole again. This is what I do best. I am presently working on my third non-fiction book.
