Bio:

I'm delighted to serve as the Regional Advisor in HI. I started my writing life with a BFA with a concentration in theatre (including study in children’s theatre and playwriting). I then took a dizzying 28-year detour into the practice of law. Beginning about six years ago, the call to return to fine arts became so strong that I became active in SCBWI-HI, went to many conferences, worked with some wonderful free lance editors and writing teachers, retired from practicing law and applied to the Vermont College of Fine Arts, where I am currently enrolled in the MFA Program for Writing for Children and Young Adults.
