I temporarily retired from working to be a stay at home mom from 1991 up to June 2025. I am a mother of four grown children now, and a grandmother of ten. I enjoy hiking and exploring interesting places,meeting new people, photography and creating short videos from my experiences, which I share on Face Book. I also enjoy writing and am an avid journal writer and am currently working on my autobiography. I have enjoyed singing in the past and sang back up vocals professionally for two different local Flagstaff bands between 2011-2014. We played a wide variety of venues in and around Northern Arizona which led to performing at the casino level.
