I'm a mom to two awesome kids--a 17 year-old young man and a 12 year-old young lady. I love to cook for my family and friends and making them smile. I enjoy planning events and parties--I always find a reason to have a party and just go a little crazy with it. My background is in biotech and counseling. I've been around the block a few times. But now I work in the food industry--more like allied food industry. I think I have the weirdest job out there--I set-up the dining room for a fine dining restaurant in Woodinville. Yup, I take care of the stemware, the tablecloths, and the shiny stuff. And it's actually quite fun because it's like planning a party everyday!
I am also working on starting a life coaching program for formerly incarcerated individuals. That's where my former life as a counselor comes in. I do the research and leg work for my project outside of work, when I can focus on what is meaningful to me. I'm interested in prison reform, social justice, equity, and betterment of people's lives in general. And of course raising my two kids--they are super awesome and make me look good!

To reach our goal, a straight path we must not follow. ~Yoda
