When Donna was four years old she wrote a “story” in “cursive” and gave it to her mother to read out loud. Instead, her mother tucked the pages into a desk drawer, telling Donna that she should read the amazing story she had created in a few years—after she had learned how to read and write. \n\nNow—able to read and write—Donna continues to create amazing stories. As an Ultrasound Technologist, she draws on the excitement and drama of working in the Emergency Department of a major city hospital to grip readers with her tales, taking them on a journey into an imaginative alternate world—one full of twists and turns and fast-paced action.\n\nA Massachusetts native, Donna now splits her time between living in her home state and Florida. She can often be found sweating in a Zumba class, playing in the Universal and Disney parks, or hanging around tiki huts as long as they’re on white sand beaches. Being under the impression she’s a treasure hunter, she sometimes scuba dives but usually chickens out and ends up snorkeling.\n\nShe earned a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Northeastern University, and later, an associate degree in Diagnostic Medical Sonography from Community College of Rhode Island where she graduated Phi Theta Kappa.\n
