    About me

    I left New England and moved out west in the early 70's as a hippie girl.  Had a varied and interesting set of work experiences.  Spent some time married and some time single.  I am happily married. 

    I have a "wicked" sense of humor.  I know myself pretty well and I don't take too many things seriously.

    I like to move - like to travel, love to walk and see new things.  I am still a hippie girl and have a spiritual side.

    I own my own consulting company and do consulting and coaching in HR, Leadership and Training.  I am often surprised at how well it is going.

    My New Years' resolution was to: "Not be afraid to try new things." I think I will keep that for a few years. 

    I am a Group Owner for Caregivers, Squeaking by Retirement and Moderator for Retire Where?   I also won the Fullest Life Contest.  I am a caregiver for my husband.  Caregiving is the job you never apply for but you just have to do.
