From my first series of mystery stories in the 5th grade, I have always realized that I loved words and writing.
 
Pushing ahead to my college years, I was a reporter and editor for the campus newspaper with a major in communications.
 
With more than 20+ wonderful years of copywriting and communications, I've put words to work and still love writing.

I've also added another area of expertise . . corporate event planning. From ensuring that tables are set correctly for a 300-person gala dinner in St. John to negotiating for a candlelight welcome by villagers for 500 top sales representatives at a temple in Bali I am committed to making the experience flawless.
 
Other passions? Travel . . . .with Africa, Bali, Belize and Europe at the top of my "favorites" list. Reading, hiking, fostering golden retrievers and chaffeuring my kids to/from activities also consume much of my time.
