I work as a probation officer, mainly with juveniles, but I also have some adult clients. I'm really a teacher, ,so I can't figure out how I ended up working in this field, but it was probably fate, since I love true crime shows on TV, and reading true crime books. My kids tease me about my "dead people" shows.

I think I became interested in true crime as a kid. Every time we'd drive to Indy, we would pass by the area where Steven Judy killed a woman and her three children in 1978, when I was 12. It might have happened when I read Truman Capote's "In Cold Blood" at about the same age.

I'm super easy to talk to, I think. I love reading all sorts of things, not just true crime books. I love mysteries, of course, but also love science fiction!
