In the mid-90's, Patricia emigrated to Athens, Greece, where she founded an education service, Serafim Books, named for “a good book is like a guardian angel.” Serafim Books gained international acclaim for its dedication to education and its philanthropic work with organizations such as Make-A-Wish Greece chapter and TESOL Greece, where Patricia served as vice-chair. During this time, Scholastic International, publishers of children’s books and educational materials, appointed Patricia their exclusive representative of Greece, Cyprus and Turkey.


These days she is blessed to reside in Northern California, where, when not chasing deer off her lawn, she is  hard at work on her latest manuscript, or volunteering her time to youth groups, such as Capital City Young Writers
