Debbie's life has two parts: the first in Canada, where she attended the Royal Conservatory of Music and the University of Toronto, and the second in Connecticut, with three children, two doodles, and one husband.

She's an award-winning writer, published in national and international media.

A NOVEL CRIME, Debbie’s third book, is a satirical crime caper about a romance writer desperate for a bestseller. Reviewers call it “wickedly hilarious,” “ingeniously plotted and uproariously funny,” “full of twisty, razor-sharp wit,” with “an ending you’ll be texting your friends about.”

Publishers Weekly called Deb's sophomore novel "acerbic" with "witty observations and gleefully unlikeable characters" and described it as "a wild exploration of the lengths some people will go to be known." BookTrib called it "assuredly nuanced" and "a zesty mind snack" with "tonal brilliance." Criminal Element commented on its "winks and nods aplenty" and "keen-eyed comedy."

Her first book, a nonfiction, true crime about a murder that involved her family, is THE CRATE, which won seven literary awards. Reviewers commented on the "gorgeous and poetic writing” and New York Journal of Books said it's "a brilliant story." Her first novel, A NEST OF SNAKES, won a CT Press Club award for fiction. Inspired by cases of abuse at elite New England private schools, it's described as "powerful and raw" and “a roller coaster ride of emotions leading to a staggering climax.”

Her dream of storytelling began one summer night by a camp bonfire as she listened to a ghost story: The Monkey's Paw. The memory still makes her shiver.
