I have been a Special Education Teacher for over 20 years in a public school district on Long Island, New York. With my experience in teaching special education students as well as having a master’s degree in special education, I create enjoyable books for readers of all ages. I love working with children with special needs and putting smiles on people’s faces. I am fortunate enough to combine these passions by writing children’s books that spread messages of acceptance, hope, love, family, personal growth and happiness. When I am not teaching, coaching or writing, I spend my free time with his family and friends. I am a sports fanatic and enjoy watching all of my favorite New York teams.
