An interest in politics led to involvement in the punk-rock movement, but having formally studied economics, she eventually gave up safety pins for dress suits, and became a credit analyst at Credit Suisse N.Y. It was there that she met her Swiss husband, Tom. The couple transferred to Credit Suisse Zürich soon afterwards, and later raised a family on the outskirts of canton Aargau, where she also dedicated a great deal of her free time to equestrian sports. Debra currently resides in Zug, Switzerland, with her children. Debra's work has appeared in 50-Word Stories, Journal of Microliterature, Apeiron Review, The Writing Women of Zurich Blog, and both The Bookends Review, and The Bookends 2014 Anthology.view less
