Hello Everyone:
I graduated in Science Writing from Oregon State University in 1990. My hobbies include Ballroom and Salsa dancing. I enjoy fast-walking the park which loops around Mission Bay in San Diego and traveling to intriguing destinations. These form backdrops for my suspense-thriller books on Amazon.
