An internet entrepreneur since 1997, I've been working from home since the days of dial up modems on my old 486. Now a single work-at-home, stay-at-home mom to two little ones, I'm still a voracious reader, jewelry fanatic, and lover of science and history.
I adore science fiction & fantasy. My literary heroes are Ray Bradbury, George RR Martin and Ben Bova.
