My career as a Software Engineer working in Electronic Warfare Systems spanned nearly four decades. With my husband David, we built a 40-foot steel sailboat, our home in New York Harbor’s Liberty State Park for several years. Living in the shadow of the Statue of Liberty led to many sailing adventures out to Shelter Island and Block Island.

We also had a home in Sittee River Village, Belize for more than 16 years, which allowed us to explore many Central American countries. In 2015, we purchased our Inglis home, where we retired in 2019 -- just in time for Covid. We enjoy boating, fishing, SCUBA, wildlife, NASA, gardening, and not shoveling snow.

As a recent addition to W.A.R. I look forward to supporting their river restoration mission as Board Secretary.
