Birthday: September 13. Bio: I am so excited to be the new East Meadow

Patch Local Editor. Before, joining the Patch community, I worked as a

night cop reporter for the Gannett Journal News in White Plains, NY. I

have also worked as freelancer for Patch in the past. My work can be seen

on the New Rochelle, Rye, Scarsdale, Larchmont, Mount Kisco and Yorktown

sites. I have also had my work published in the Columbia University

Newsletter, The Mount Vernon Inquirer and the Bronx Press. I was raised in

Yonkers, the largest city in Westchester County. I graduated from Manhattan

College in the Bronx with a B.A. in English and Journalism. I received my

Masters in journalism from Iona College in New Rochelle, NY in 2006. East

Meadow is my new home and I cannot wait to learn the ins and outs of this

great community and to meet those who make East Meadow a wonderful

place-YOU, the residents. I am very friendly, so if you see me please come

over and tell me your concerns, whats occurring in the community or just

simply, "Hello."
