PERSONAL
I’ve had many fulfilling “lives” during my not seeming very long life.

I began my career as a high school mathematics teacher... then taught nursery school when my two children were young.  This part of my life also involved helping to start up a wonderful alternative school based on the British Integrated Day system of education, a school still in existence after 40 years.

When my children entered primary school, I went back to school and earned a Law Degree and an MBA in Finance.   I then began my 20 year career as a corporate attorney with responsibility for employment related  matters.

While my years as a corporate attorney were very satisfying, I did  take up playing the harp and making textile art as a balance to my corporate responsibilities.

After I retired from corporate law, I began in earnest a new career as a textile artist focusing my art primarily on social justice and anti-war issues.  I again  continued my education, participating in a three year Mastery Program in Textile Design.  Although I now have a small harp playing business sharing my music with couples who are getting married, my primary passion continues to be focused on my art.  And I never wake up without some pressing topic calling me to my studio to start work on.  I am a very lucky woman.
