Whenever people ask me what I do, I say, "I feel lucky to work at two things I absolutely love, being a therapist and teaching dance!" I find therapy and dance compliment each other; both offer me a way to help others have more joy, creativity and spontaneity in their lives.

My life today is filled with both work and people that I love: my husband, stepdaughter, family and friends. I feel blessed to have done many interesting things thus far, from living overseas, training and performing as a professional Flamenco dancer and running several small businesses including a dance company, Salsa Caliente!, tutoring adolescents, and creating and selling handcrafted jewelry. I've also worked in other fields such as oceanic sciences, computer technology and accounting. I have many hobbies including knitting, tropical fish, website design, cooking, camping, fishing, bicycling and of course, dancing.
