Hello and welcome!
I have the incredible fortune to be married to the man I fell in love with long ago. We raised a daughter and son — and then had the privilege to help raise our first grandchild — the first to call me Grandmama. And now four more have been added to the clan — beautiful twin granddaughters, a talented red-head granddaughter, and a wonderfully charming grandson. I am a woman who is blessed by her family and friends, and passionate about swimming, sailing and skiing.
And spirituality is the glue that has kept it all together.
While being part of a family (on matter how one’s “family” evolves) is a one of life’s major blessings, I count myself lucky in the professional realm. As hard as it’s been at times, I love my career – even the long climb it’s required. As an experienced lifelong entrepreneur, I continue to advanced my knowledge and skills in every area of the entertainment spectrum — from producing, writing, and publishing to acting and directing. For those that are interested, a synopsis of my resume follows. And, believe me — understanding the spirituality that guides my life, has definitely guided my talents.
So primarily — I am creator. Seeing something come from the birth of the planning stages to a full reality, in front of an audience (theatre, television, films, via any media, or any form of print) . . . is an unimaginable high — to be part of that process is exciting.
Come to think of it … that’s much like raising a family!
It all gives growth to the spirit ... if you can handle everything that comes with it. That’s what spiritual laws are for — and with continued mastery, they become the only thing we really control is this brief time we call life. What a ride!
