Hi!  Glad you could stop by. 

I'm a retired dot-com'er, a yogi, dancer, singer, hiker, photographer, traveller, writer, seamstress, basket-weaver, composer, designer, organizer, and a Christian, not necessarily in that order.  See My Beliefs for details on what I believe.  If you want to see my business background, check out my bio.  See below for more personal information.

• Volunteer work at the Opportunity Center of the Midpeninsula, a facility that helps homeless and at-risk individuals and families. I work primarily with the Family Opportunity Center. Go to Inside the OC to read about the OC and their needs or here for their official web site.

  

• The Bright Lights Program - a program started in the fall of 2002 to teach children about helping others. Follow the link for more info. The composite picture to the right shows the kids in the costumes I made for them for the May 2003 "Prom Night" theme.

• Yoga for Good: A group of people who get together for a yoga class and potluck and donate all the proceeds to a member-chosen charity.  We have raised $4,250 to date.  Membership is free and all events are priced on a sliding scale.
• Kindness: A page about kindness, what it means to me and ideas for ways to be kind.

• Office Volunteer and singing in the choir at St. Mark's Episcopal Church. Bright Lights is a St. Mark's program and Yoga for Good potlucks are held at St. Mark's.

• Yoga. It keeps me limber, grounded, and has helped me become a bit gentler in my approach to life.

• Making baskets, being creative, jogging, and sewing. Go to my house and crafts pics page. You can also see all the crafts I designed for Bright Lights at the Bright Lights Crafts Page.
• I write music. Listen to some of it on my music page.

• I hike often.  I have some pictures and comments about favorite local hikes and hikes in the Swiss Alps, if you like pictures.
• I like fast cars and drive a silver 2000 Corvette. I considered getting a more earth-friendly car but I drive so little that I've decided to keep it.
