Life is exciting…. my time has been filled with many entrepreneurial adventures – from catering manager, “Nordy” girl, flower shop owner to my latest passion as a wellness consultant – helping connect people to healthy resources -  I’m always open for a new adventure! Wife to Steve, Auntie to 8 and love to spend time anywhere in the sun, play golf, go shopping and enjoy a great glass of wine with friends!

My passion and inspiration is my 13 year old daughter, who constantly reminds me to celebrate life and not to take myself so seriously .  I enjoy spending my downtime with my daughter and husband, traveling, exploring new cuisines and playing the occasional board game.  My volunteering efforts in the community have always tended to center around providing a support for our youth with service as the Past Finance Chair for Girls Inc. of Northwest Oregon and as a former member of the Executive Board of the Evergreen School District Foundation  I have also  worked on the Development Committee for Oregon Entrepreneurs Network, as I truly believe it is vital to support the efforts of local start up businesses in our community. For my day job, I work locally in the financial services Banking industry, as a Commercial and Nonprofit Banking Officer.
