My interest in writing began back in grade school and flourished throughout high school and college. I’ve had my own column in a local paper in upstate NY and worked as a freelance reporter for the Wantagh Seaford Citizen and related papers, but until recently, I had not written a book.

Whose Health is it Anyway?

My twin passions for writing and health came together in the creation of “Whose Health is it Anyway? Using Alternatives for a Personalized Approach to Health.” In collaboration with several friends who are health care professionals in a wide range of alternative health fields, we put together a lifetime of reading and experience with professional expertise to provide an easy to read guide to all the things you can do to improve your health besides prescriptions and surgery.

For all of the people who are living with the daily discomforts of chronic conditions, those who are feeling the effects of their age and anyone who wants to have more of a say in matters of their own care, this is a good place to start.

In addition to chapters on massage, chiropractic, exercise and occupational therapy, acupuncture, fertility, hypnotherapy, yoga, Reiki and more, we’ve included a chapter on improving health outcomes through patient safety and education, one on being prepared, so health events doen’t become quite as much of a crisis and the inspiring story of surviving and thriving against the odds.

Turiddu: A Boy Growing Up in Wartime Sicily

This is a memoir of sorts of my father. Throughout his life, he told us stories of his experiences in Sicily, which made him the strong person that he was. It is my opinion that his generation of immigrants is misunderstood because they are viewed through the lens of what life is like today. This book brings to life what it was like to grow up in wartime Sicily. Available on Amazon as a Kindle download or paperback. Click HERE to purchase.
