What issues are most important to you?

I believe in hard work, goal setting, prioritizing. I do not like it when women do not get the support they need to achieve their dreams. Don't tell someone that they cannot or should not do something, support them even if you don't agree and say "good luck."

What kind of social activism do you engage in?

volunteering, staying educated on current events.

What organizations do you love or work with?

AHA, American Red Cross,

What books, music, films, etc. do you think educate and empower women?

Mary Kay Ash, Marla Cilley, Oprah, Louise Hays, Eckart Tolle, and many many more.

Career: what do you do or want to do?

Too many things to list.

What skills and interests to do you have to offer to others in the Red Tent Women's Project communty? This is your chance, so sell yourself!

My love for years has been real estate. What I would like to offer this group is a "Red Tent", a physical place, location, for women to escape when they need to run away for a day or a week. I don't mean a shelter from danger. I mean an escape, girls weekend place. I live in the beautiful Finger Lakes Area of NYS and would love to share it with others. Maybe through this group it can happen.

What would you like other members of this community to know? About yourself, about the world...anything (try not to be profane, though)!

You are an amazing beautiful woman, inside and out. Do not let anyone tell you that you cannot do something.

What was your "women really matter and I'm going to do something about it" moment?

It was not an ah ha moment. It has been a long arduous journey and I am not completely there yet.
