I'm proud to have received several CT Press Club Awards for writing. A highlight was being presented the 2018 and 2019 awards by The New York Times best selling author Jane Green! 


I'm grateful for any accolades, one that especially tickles us is receiving the STAR 99 .9 Best Website of the Week award!  That's for my website Motherrr.com co-founded with Barb Wilkov with the tagline "Healing Relationships one Mother/Daughter at a Time!"
