I'm passionate about women's issues and believe whole-heartedly that women are the key to peace and prosperity for the world. I also believe that this will happen because of the tireless efforts of women to create something good in their lives and share it with the world.

I am a 46-year old single woman with no children. I work as a human resources manager for an accounting firm in Portland, Oregon. I am a guest board member of the Itafari Foundation which was founded in Portland in 2005. Please visit Itafari's website to learn more about what we're up to: www.itafari.org
