I graduated from San Jose State University with a B.S. in Business and Psychology. After working in Venture Capital and other business positions I completed a Masters in Counseling at Santa Clara University.

Al Capone, Stories My Grandmother Told Me
For the first time , the true stories of Al Capone's private life and final days will be told by his granddaughter, Diane Patricia Capone. It is based on my personal recollections along with the stories my grandmother, Mae, and my father, who was Al Capone's only child told me. It is based also on my mother, Diana Casey Capone's private journals. It is about a remarkable love that never died; about not giving up hope and finally about personal redemption.
