I am a teacher and organist who has traveled extensively within the United States and to eighteen countries. Some of these trips were for personal interest, while others were for volunteer work with various relief organizations. For example, I traveled to Bolivia to teach children English and to New Orleans to assist with the Hurricane Katrina Relief effort. I enjoy writing and humor, and my past role as a United Methodist Clergy spouse provides me with opportunities to speak to groups.

Second prize in the Information and Travel category at St. David's Christian Writer's Conference.
