After attending St. Joseph’s College on Long Island, NY, she is a 1986 graduate of Bloomsburg University in Pennsylvania. D.J. earned a language degree from L’Université de Nancy II in France, where she took part in an international studies abroad program. D.J.’s early career began as an administrative specialist for a prominent translation company in Manhattan, New York, and later for a prestigious CPA Firm on the Main Line in Pennsylvania. The positions were thoroughly pleasing as she enjoyed greeting and assisting important business clients on a daily basis. Leaving her position to raise a family enabled D.J. to volunteer at school when her children were younger. D.J. currently finds pleasure in hobbies such as cooking, baking, photography, and writing. She also enjoys spending quality time with her family and two Maltese. Prior to writing articles for AMAC, D.J. owned and operated a Professional Organizing Service which enabled her to gain extensive insight and understanding into the minds of hoarders. Now freelance writing from home, D.J. enjoys writing on a variety of topics such as travel, finance, politics, human interests, decorating and home organization.
