ABOUT ME

Here and Now

After 20 years in the restaurant service industry, a stint as a say at home parent, and three years at the Museum of Natural and Cultural History, I have found yet another passion in Geography. Whether the project is independent or collaborative, using a holistic or systems approach, large or small, I am ready to use my depth of skill and substantial experience to bring the project forward in a professional and organized manner. Finding creative solutions to complicated problems while communicating solutions in a clear, concise, and understandable way is what drives me to provide the highest quality customer service. Positivity, reliability, and a polished product are what I strive for.
