I love a good story and I am passionate about sharing one too. For the past 22 years, I have been conducting walking tours from Maine to Florida. I am a marine biologist who fell in love with history. In addition to a deep love for our ocean and an equal amount of love for history, I also have a creative side to me. I love art as well. I am also a native Floridian and ready to share many of my stories as a writer. Following the links below to read published stories. Enjoy!

History is the tapestry of life woven out of nature.
