I am retired and have returned to Seattle, WA where my only child, a daughter, was raised and now resides with her husband and my grandchildren. I was raised in a little community in Eastern Washington. I attended WSU and graduated with a degree in Education. I married and moved to Seattle, WA. I also attended SU during my career for two master degrees, Curriculum Development and School Administration.
I moved to the desert from Seattle in 1998, after my daughter graduated from high school and entered Santa Clara University. I had worked for the Seattle Public Schools for 28 years.
I found an empty building lot in Indian Wells and I had my home designed and built. I moved into my new home in 2000.
I retired from the Desert Sands School District after working an additional 12 years. I did not plan to return to Seattle, but with the first announcement of a pregnancy, I couldn't return fast enough.
I now enjoy almost daily interactions with my two precious boys.
Having guests stay at my home has been such a pleasant experience. Each of my guests have treated my home as their own and I have met the most wonderful, thoughtful people. I come to the desert to meet each guest at their arrival and make myself available 24/7 for any questions or concerns.
