I was born the 3rd child of 4 on a dairy farm 7 miles south of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The farm was a lovely place where I was able to connect with spirit in nature and have the benefit of fresh air, organic vegetables, and grass fed beef. I graduated from The University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia where I majored in Medical Technology. I then pursued a career in hospital clinical laboratories ending as the Laboratory Manager at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.
I then graduated from Wharton School of Business at the Univ of PA where I majored in Health Care and had a 5 year career in Hospital Administration. After a spiritual awakening in 1986 that resulted in sobriety, I eventually realized that a different career would make better use of my skills and abilities. After moving to Olympia in 1993 I started a Financial Planning business which I built over the ensuring 29 years. I sold the business and retired in June of 2021. In my next act I have joined Unity of Olympia, joined the Peace Choir, and learned to play pickleball with my husband. I continue to enjoy gardening, hiking, travel, sponsoring women, and facilitating a spiritual release technique with individuals.
