I have a BA Degree through the University of South Africa, with majors in English and Communications (specializing in Advertising, TV and Public Relations, sub-majors in Psychology (including HIV/AIDs Care and Counselling) and Educaiton.

Most of my work experience has been in the fields of Public Relations, Sales and Marketing and Administration / Management, along with considerable experience in producing company material such as training courses in customer care, self development and front-end systems. I have also written, edited and published company newsletters and magazines and, for many years, was involved in the conference and events industry. I am a specialist in setting up departments from scratch, with a particular focus on systems and staff training.

Woven into all of these was my passion for communication and the power of words. It brings me incredible satisfaction to be able to direct all my experience into the one passion that has remained with me all my life.

Aside from being a published author, I am also an editor for Astraea Press (with others in the pipeline) and also freelance as an editor with particular focus on developing aspiring and unpublished writers. I have also been a judge for the Golden Rose Romance Writing Contest. I also produce cover artwork on request.

I currently own Classic Romance Revival, a group created to develop and grow the "classic" romance genre. The focus of the group is to create opportunities for authors, readers and publishers to increase awareness of the "classic" romance genre. This includes promotional and marketing opportunities at an affordable cost.
