I received my M.A. in Religious Studies from John F. Kennedy University, Orinda, California. My early career led to life in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and into a world of exotic travel and hidden places. Extensive experiences abroad enabled me to study various cultures and religions first hand. I feel my research and unique situation give my works a totally fresh perspective and makes a contribution to religious inquiry. My hope is to make this subject matter easy to read. I have tried to weave psychology, spirituality, religion and dream interpretation into an experiential encounter. I find joy in spiritual journeys and this culminated in writing both, The Light: A Modern Day Journey for Peace and A Mother Goddess for Our Times: Mary’s Appearances at Medjugorje. Each of us wants to contribute to the world in a positive way. Writing books is one format that worked for me. I think most authors might say that about themselves. Since spirituality is my interest, I enjoy telling stories about my experiences from a personal perspective. In addition to marriage and having a child, writing has been a perfect complement to my life.
