Hello Friends. Welcome!

I wanted to be a jill of all trades when I was young and experience everything: travel, job hop, earn a few degrees. Now that I'm in midlife, I have no reason to slow down. In fact, I might take it up a notch!

I'm a slash/career professional: leadership coach, cozy mystery author, and certified wound care nurse. I'm a widow who finally remarried (after 11 years; good men are hard to find) and a single mom of two beautiful adults. I live in a quaint PNW town nestled between the mountains and the ocean, and my favorite food cycles between Japanese, Mexican, Brazilian, and Middle Eastern.

There's no end to the beauty life offers us, and I'm going after all of it. How 'bout we go together?

Let the story begin!
