I am an Italian brat born in northern California and have been published in a variety of poetry, photography and art journals, both online and in print.

I am honest and believe in treating others with love and kindness. But that should never be mistaken for weakness. I love everything about the sea, cappuccino and the piano. Also, I adore the Pope. Did you know that he plays Mozart on the piano in the evening, when alone in his quarters? How cool is that!

I am the Vice President of Emerging Magazine, Inc. and serve on the Board Of Directors as Executive Director of Marketing for Emerging Magazine Inc.

Our Purpose

Emerging Magazine is an innovative marketing and promotional tool for members and contributors.

While the magazine itself writes articles, produces television broadcasts and performs live and published interviews, we are opening our magazine to individuals, charities, companies, arts and entertainment talent, writers and other professionals to broadcast themselves as Contributors.

Members/Contributors have unlimited storage space for video, photos and articles or discussions. Once you have content on the site, Emerging Magazine goes to work promoting your page, content and website.

Emerging Magazine makes available, content for the public to read and enjoy, while branding and promoting your content as an advertising and marketing service to you. Its all free and we have been performing this service since 2001.

Additionally, Emerging Magazine produces Celebrity Charity Events and other national events where we promote our Contributors and offer space for product and service companies to expose themselves to industry professionals and media.

The magazine began producing events, further increasing exposure for its clients. Events began the spring of 2006 in San Francisco, California. Starting with art exhibitions/receptions, charity fundraisers, club events and fashion shows. Of those featured on the online site, name and brand recognition was immediate, further driving traffic to the site and its clients.
