My early training was in classical ballet, dance and piano. I read voraciously, and became fascinated with everything French. While at Rutgers University I studied Political Science and French Literature, working in retail to put myself through school. After years working in the corporate world at Rolm Telecommunications, I left the rat race to finish raising my children and volunteer in many organizations. Finally, I am realizing a life long goal by writing lifestyle pieces and fiction that includes many topics I am interested in:  fashion, art, fine food and wine, luxury travel and fascinating people.

Culture and Cuisine Club
The Culture and Cuisine Club began as a way for me to document the themed dinner parties I shared with a group of friends. It has grown into a place where I write about many different topics, post exciting recipes, and feature the work of other authors.
