I began my writing journey after working as a travel nurse in NYC, Honolulu, and Tampa. I was fortunate to have amazing experiences in cities all over the world and I wanted to share these stories to inspire other people to experience the world. Five years and over 400 posts later, you will find lots of information about hidden gems, in both my current city of Tampa and around the world. Head over to my blog and check it out.

My latest novel The End of Sam (ISBN 978-0-692- 04083-6) has just been released by Amazon in their Kindle edition format.  It is a contemporary novel about a man’s life and how his poor choices resulted in a death row sentence. On his last day alive, he reflects on his life while telling the story to the prison guard he became close to. Right before he is scheduled to walk to the death chamber, he receives news that could change everything. But will he choose to save his life at the expense of the people closest to him?
