I have my Bachelor's degree in Music with an emphasis in Vocal Performance.

I went back to school in 2000, and completed my MS in Computer Science in 2002, so I guess I'm a little ADD! LOL

In 2007, I completed a Post-Master's Certificate in Vocal Pedagogy at East Carolina University.

I teach Computer Science at a local college, but also have a Music Studio in my home where I teach voice and piano.

My emphasis is Musical Theater. You can find a few of my own vocal recordings here:

As far as writing goes, I wrote a fiction column for Tall Ship Canada magazine for about five years.

The college where I am currently teaching contracted me to write a Computer Science textbook for them.

B.A in English Literature, M.S. in Health.

Trying to get my writing work up to where I make some decent money. I've been published in several regional fiction magazines, as well as having done technical writing, business plans, website landing pages, website content, blogs, and other stuff. I have a couple dozen articles bouncing around the internet, I think they are all anonymous thoough I'm not sure.

Currently, I am working on several longer pieces of fiction. A paranormal romance, a YA story, and a traditional romance. This last one I'm skirting the edge of spicy, so if that offends please advise. I usually warn my readers of language and sexual content - though the sexual content has not been applicable yet and I don't know that it ever will be. We'll see.

I am NOT a grammarian, so that will be the first fault you find with my submissions. But, I think I structure a good story, though please advise if I'm delusional. Well, delusional about that anyway.
