I graduated from UCLA with a degree in Painting/Sculpture/Graphic Arts and then got a second degree in Photographic Illustration with a specialization in Multi-Image Presentations. This ultimately led me to an airline marketing position where I spent 25 years working on advertising and promotions, corporate identity and branding, product development, customer research, and aircraft interiors. An interesting fact about me is that B/E Aerospace once asked Richard Branson to move from a seat at the Aircraft Interiors Expo so I could try it out.

Favorite Hobby
Sailing – I love to be on the water. I first learned to sail at the Annapolis Sailing School in St. Croix and then enjoyed gunkholing on the Chesapeake Bay in our CAL 27. The hardest thing I had to do when I relocated to Phoenix for my job was selling our sailboat, Aeolus IV!
