About Me and My Book:

I hold a bachelor degree in police forensics and a master's degree in criminology. I have certifications in serial crime and criminal profiling. I'm also an affiliate member of the criminology section of the Academy of Behaviorial Profiling.

I have an intense curiosity about crime and the varied connections between the actual crime and the criminal mind. This propelled me to go back to school and earn a Masters degree in criminology. My academic background has further helped to prepare me to write in the thriller and true crime genres.

I have a debut thriller novel out called "Compulsion". When Serial Killers Terrorize a California Beach Community, One Woman Stands in Their Way...

Emily Stone doesn’t have a badge. But that hasn’t stopped her from tracking down some of the West’s most dangerous child-killers. Armed with a digital SLR camera, laptop computer and her trusty Beretta, Stone uses her innate gift for detective work to identify the perps — and then anonymously e-mail the evidence to the cops.

Now, the hunt for two brazen serial killers on the loose right in her own coastal California town threatens to expose Stone’s identity — unraveling her carefully constructed cover and jeopardizing her life’s work. But when she gets too close to the action, this razor-sharp hunter becomes the hunted. Cooperating with the handsome local police detective could be the only hope for stopping the rampage directed at unsuspecting young women — and saving herself. Can they piece together the clues in time?

Compulsion mixes CSI-style investigation with a ripped-from-the-headlines plot and a dose of romance for a keeps-you-guessing, fast-paced and savvy thriller, right up until the shocking finale.

A Moment to Enjoy Photography

Photography has been a great recreation for most of my life, especially when I'm in the middle of a writing project. Writing at times can be stressful, particularly when I'm writing about grisly crime scenes and serial killers. It has been important for me to be able to take enjoyable, constructive breaks. Afterwards, I feel refreshed and ready to return to my current writing task with an energized new perspective.

I love being outdoors to enjoy nature and native wildlife. I'm very lucky to live so close to the California coast to enjoy the many beaches. There are literally unlimited photo opportunities around my area and I try to take every opportunity to capture the beauty that surrounds me. By taking the time to concentrate on a single flower or beautiful vista, it helps to regain a calming balance in my life.

I enjoy both color and black and white photography. Sometimes a photo will reveal more drama in a black and white format that might have been lost in the original version of vibrant colors. I try to find interesting photography subjects in landscapes, seascapes, and buildings to capture my feelings of the day.
