A Bit About Me

  • My husband and I have four children who are grown and flown.

  • We are now grandparents to three.

  • Over the decades, I have learned to appreciate and care well for my more introverted self. I enjoy quiet time to read, rest and recover.

  • You might also find me walking the dogs or spending time with the rest of our crew at our lake property.

  • I love to cook and nothing is better than laughing really hard with people I love.

Education and Training
