Music remains a big part of my life - I played in the Lewis County Community Band for 13 years. All three of my children play instruments as well.
I work as the Executive Director for the Thurston Conservation District, in Tumwater, WA. My career background is in Management, Environmental Education and Environmental Design. Prior to my current career (of over 15 years now). Previously, I worked as a band director at Adna Elementary School.
My hobbies include camping, kayaking, hiking and traveling. I own an large travel trailer and try to get out at least twice a month year-round!
