_________________________________________ 

Rene was born In Portugal , To a European mother and Mozambique/Puerto Rican father, where she lived until her  teens.  After migrating to the United States and adjusting to the new world and culture around her, Rene and her family would find themselves facing adversity homelessness and tragedy.  Her grandfather always stressed the importance of education, especially if one was to become a world traveler, because it increased the respect earned worldwide. "Control your accent and make the people focus on your talents and not your dialect to gain their respect. Native accents and tongues are to be cherished amongst family."

Therefore, after completing undergraduate degrees in Physics, Chemistry and Social Science, and a Master’s degree in English Rhetoric/Composition Rene attended

Law School to help fight for justice in the murder of her daughter,   because being a young immigrant, 

no one would take the case on seriously or even

wanted to  do more than just close the issue as  a

possible case of S.I.D.S. related injuries. 

After successfully gaining the closure of this issue,

 Rene realized  that since age six,

 she found great solace and refuge in expressing herself via poetic verse and playing her violin.  When Rene would find her life as a ethnically mixed child, she would write poetry or songs. When struggling with the new world and the new people around her, Rene would write more poetry and more songs.  To date, Rene has six published novels, under her own publishing company, Sweet Verse Publishers  www.sweetverseboutique.com and www.sweetverseproductions.com .
