I work as a therapist and am currently involved in creating a support group for women with a nurse practitioner in an OB/GYN practice. We will have speakers each week and will address women's physical health, emotional health and creative / spiritual growth!

Any music that captures my imagination!

I love chick flicks. I can't help it!

I have been "awake" in this school of life for 28 years. I practice the art of living in the moment,even when outside circumstances tug on my soul to distract me. I will live this lifetime, learning and growing as far as this path takes me.

"Leap and the net will appear". -Zen saying

I am married with one son. I love to read, write and spend time with girlfriends. I walk, take kickboxing classes and nurture my body with healthy, organic food. I am an avid photographer and have been trained in the darkroom, so I love to spend time in "grown up play", watching images come alive in the developer!

To encourage others, through the therapeutic process, through friendships, through capturing souls in photographs.

I work as a therapist in private practice, specializing in women's issues (eating disorders, substance abuse, sexual abuse, self esteem) and I have a word of mouth photography business, specializing in portraits.
