Raul Maldonado's The Company We Keep, The NE College of Poetry's First Annual
Wawayanda Review and Chris Wood's Heyday Magazine. There is a CD of her work
entitled Preservation produced by Mike Jurkovic.
She's earned her way through life as a waitress, cook and baker, an office worker
and delivery person for exotic fruit. Also as assistant manager at Starbuck's
in NYC, her record for caffeine intoxication was four double espressos a day
with whipped cream. She now works in the area's favorite health food store and
drinks decaf.
She most enjoys reading her work for an audience and is also an actress recently
involved in staged readings of new plays by the talented Lisa Kimble.
In great appreciation for all the venues and hosts that keep poetry alive in
the Hudson Valley.
