Born in Georgia (Ft. Benning), grew up in the Indianapolis area of Indiana, got a B.A. in Journalism and B.S. in Public Relations/Marketing from Butler University, moved to Los Angeles in 1987 where I worked and travelled extensively in different capacities in the entertainment industry. I enjoyed producing commericals and music videos but after the actor's union went on strike for the second time, I decided to hit the road. I moved to Reno, NV in Oct. 2001 and am the Business Manager for a Wellness Center.

Writing poetry is my passion however, I love writing essays on subjects that pique my curiosity. I also enjoy reading, holistic and intuitive medicine, dancing, yoga, meditation, philosophy, theosophy, all variations of music; from Handel to Oakenfold and travel!

I originally joined FR in 1998 under another nic because I felt very alone politically in Los Angeles with all the Dims. Somehow, that nic went away and I had to start over with another one! (BossLady) FR has given me so much in terms of knowledge, philosophy and viewpoints. Thanks!
