Long bio:
I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry from Michigan State University and a Master's in Biological Chemistry from the University of Michigan. After graduation, I worked several years in the pharmaceutical industry before quitting to stay home full time with my son. When I was ready to work again, I began working as a freelance writer, beginning with fiction and later moving into science writing and journalism. My work has appeared in numerous magazines and web zines such as Genetic Engineering News, Drug Discovery and Development, Drug Discovery Today, The Ann Arbor Observer, The Detroit Free Press, Wired News, Biocompare, Bioperform, Pharmacy Practice News, Nature, and many more. I continue to write and publish in the Science Fiction genre, as well. My hobbies include sewing, knitting, running, playing the violin (which I took up in 2002), and cooking.
