Marisa (rhymes with Theresa) writes fiction and nonfiction from her home in the middle of nowhere, New York with her loving husband and the cutest Chiweenies ever, Terry and Lucy. (But she does her best writing on ferry boats and train rides.)
She is currently at work on her first book—YAY!—a memoir entitled Everything You Can't Control.
A former middle school teacher, Marisa now works as a peer recovery specialist at a local not-for-profit where she supports individuals improving their mental health and wellness.
