After graduating from Eastern Washington University in Cheney, Washington, Dee began her career as a Medical Technologist. She spent many years working as a generalist in Chemistry, Hematology, Immunology, and Blood Bank and several more as a Phlebotomy and Night Shift supervisor. She loves the challenges of being a Medical Technologist and came full circle after accepting an evening shift position in the Microbiology Department at The National Institutes of Health. One of her lifelong ambitions has always been to write novels. After spending sixteen years in Washington State and relocating to the Washington D.C. metropolitan area, she noted the differences between the two and felt she had a unique perspective on being African American in a predominately White society. This became the driving force for this novel. Her other interests include organic gardening, reading, traveling, and working with senior citizens.
