I was born in North Carolina, and spent part of my childhood in Brazil. I speak Portuguese, Spanish, French, and I'm still learning Irish. I love science fiction and fantasy novels, as well as good mystery novels. I write poetry, have two unpublished novels, various editorials and reviews under my belt, as well as a published short story in the fanzine ISTA WEYR(based on Anne McCaffrey's Dragonridesr of Pern series).
