Sharon Dukett is an award-winning author who writes thrillers and memoir. She is a member of Sisters in Crime, International Thriller Writers, Mystery Writers of America, and Connecticut Authors and Publishers Association.
Sharon worked in information technology as a consultant, programmer, and project manager in the private sector, and as a deputy director in government. This taught her the infinite possibilities of how plans go awry, and the creativity needed to rescue them: a useful insight for writing thrillers.
