Born in Boston, Kathleen has lived in Phoenix, Arizona for the past twenty years. She was co-Salutatorian of her Rio Salado College graduating class (1995) with her late husband. She has spent her professional life working with computers-from teaching computer programming to her last position as Chief Information Officer for a major weapons manufacturer. Although her novel, MALIGNED, is fiction, much of the technology in the story is inspired by her work, and by the work of   her late husband who was a member of the intelligence community prior to founding his own computer consulting firm. Kathleen is also the author of a number of short stories, commercial communications and advertising releases.
