Initially writing imaginative  children’s stories, she completed her first bound book at the age of 7.  Loving both arts and academics, at age 16, she successfully petitioned  her school board, winning their approval to bypass her senior year and  go directly to college, earning Bachelor of Arts Degrees in Creative  Writing, Biology, and African Studies.
