I am a California native and have lived in San Rafael almost my
entire life. I went through the public school system here from San
Pedro to Davidson to San Rafael High to College of Marin. Growing
up in Marin County was quite a treat!

I’ve been a Santa Venetian, and creek-side resident, since 1989. I
was drawn to the area because of its beauty and serenity and
hardly a day goes by that I don’t think to myself, “I am SO lucky AND
happy to live here.”

Since my teens, I have volunteered and been active in my
community, so it was a natural progression to join the SVNA Board
shortly after moving here. For me, my involvement and time
invested is a way of “giving back” and expressing my appreciation
and gratitude for all that I have and the joy I get from living here.
For those of you who have never tried it, I recommend it highly!

I am a self-employed business consultant and with my free time, I…
(HA! What am I saying? I don’t have any free time). But if I did, I’d
like to spend more time in my yard, visiting with my family, friends
and neighbors, tap dancing, crocheting, boating and having my Big
Dog “walk me” around the levee.
