Who we are

I love jazz and reggae, water rides, and dancing in the kitchen with my husband. I’m at home in the high energy of city lights with streets full of all kinds of people. I’m at home in the woods, resting in the peace of wildlife sounds and streams. One of my favorite things is to spend hours with friends—good talks, too much coffee, silliness, laughter.

Why co-create and co-host Rebels for Hope? Because I went through a long stretch of discouragement — became expertly cynical. Eventually, I got tired of being tired.

I developed a hobby of looking for solid reasons—even glimmers—to feel encouraged, to strengthen hope. Wonderful mentors and friends helped.

I want to pay this forward.
