Born and raised in Canada, I now live in Northern California. I've loved animals all my life, and attended Meredith Manor and then Salem College where I graduated with a Bachelor of Equestrian Education degree. I came to California and trained Arabian horses for several years, then worked in the mortgage industry for a few years and finally landed as the hospital administrator at a Veterinary hospital where I have remained for more than twenty years. The first owner sold it and I stayed with the practice. Since then, I have been truly blessed to work with an amazing woman, who is both brilliant and generous, and her fabulous team. Besides running the hospital I have been able to study and, under Dr. Mills supervision, practice small animal acupressure. I love my job.
Throughout my life, I have dabbled with several creative mediums including pastels, oil painting, cross stitch, embroidery and crochet. I have yet to learn how to knit! Then I discovered stained glass and I am in love with it. It is a never ending challenge with so many different ways to use it, I am delighted. I have done copper foil projects, a few lead projects and am now creating different things with fused glass in my small kiln.
Growing up, I was an avid reader of fantasy, science fiction and mystery novels. During my education at Fuller Seminary, I was inspired by my Biblical studies to write Faith Filled Flights of Fantasy. I am currently working on several novels (in various stages of completion) all set in the same fantasy world and one other project that is proving to be quite independent of the others.

My husband, John, and I share our lives with two dogs and one very independent cat. Tobie stopped in on his travels and stayed, and Cooper came from Lucky Dog Rescue. The kitty is Spunky.
Tobias. He's such a ham.
