Formerly an intermediate school counselor and elementary teacher, I'm now into freedom, joy and expanding consciousness. I live out in the high desert of So Cal, but went to high school and college in Washington state, and previous to that, grew up on a farm in central Kansas. As I child, horses were my favorite things in the world and my solitary rides developed my thoughtful side and my appreciation of nature. I couldn't decide if I wanted to be Lone Ranger or a space cadet when I grew up. My journey has been an adventure and I'm thinking I'm definitely not in Kansas anymore, although it's still all about Oz, in my books!
