- Born in San Francisco.
- Lived in about 12 houses by the age of 12. No, my father is not military. He’s a dreamer.
- Married my high school sweetheart. We’re still married!
- Mother of two grown children. Son lives in Cleveland. Daughter and husband live in British Columbia.
- Privileged to be an at-home mom all my married days. Guess my career path could be called “professional volunteer” but that is changing.
- Currently living in the Pocono “Mountains” of Pennsylvania in the US.
- Earning a masters degree in Social Work at Marywood University in Scranton.
- Providing companionship for a disabled woman in Scranton.
- Husband is Director of Facilities at Spruce Lake Retreat, a Christian camp and conference center. I’m his support staff. Sometimes I decorate the stuff he fixes. Now and then I am a Dining Room host. And I build a network of prayer support for the ministry.

There’s another side of me that may interest you. I am a lifelong learner. Curiosity compels me to spend hours reading books and searching the web to get answers. Now and then I do little experiments, too. Click on Monarch Morph Project to get a taste of the child in me. I hope I never lose that zest for life.
