Introduction
Summary
I started my working life in the healthcare industry at Children's Hospital in Boston, and after my MBA worked in the computer industry, including almost a decade at IBM as a marketing representative and a planning consultant for banking image applications.
Since 2000 I have earned a BFA in Painting and Printmaking from VCU and Post-Baccalaureate certificate from MICA. I have also been exploring my interest in patterns, human evolution and integral thinking ideas like Spiral Dynamics as well as an interest in alternative health.
I founded HSP Health a website to support the health and personal development of highly sensitive people. HSPs are people born with a nervous system that absorbs all the stimulus from their environment. HSPs have a natural sensitivity to the energy around them. There is a strong correlation between creativity, progressive and visionary thinking and the highly sensitive trait. Highly sensitive people, however, are often challenged by stress and genetically based disorders which hinder their ability to develop their substantial natural gifts. I am an HSP myself.
My website helps highly sensitive people to understand themselves since high sensitivity is actually a very complex set of characteristics - there is no one kind of highly sensitive person. HSP Health has become a learning center for highly sensitive people seeking improved work and social success through a variety of information resources including an online course: There's Nothing Wrong With You! A Special Program For Highly Sensitive People.
My objective is to create greater awareness of the highly sensitive trait and its great value to society, and support HSPs through coaching and classes in their lives and work. Through HSP Health I help more HSPs bring their important gifts to the world.
Specialties: research, vision, coaching, intuitive thinking, creativity, writing, art making, reiki.

Infinite Shape
1/2005
Curiosity about our world has been a driving force in my life and my art. Why we create the structures we have and why we hold on to them when they no longer serve us is an ongoing source of wonder. Shapes are my way of exploring questions about structure. Why do some work and others not? Sometimes psychologically, sometimes humorously, I continually look for new perspectives. The quirky biomorphic shapes that I draw and paint enable me to ask all sorts of questions about shape as conflict, as conditioning and knowledge systems. The exploration is never ending.
Marketing Rep - National Federal Marketing
IBM
1985-1991
I joined National Federal Marketing Navy branch as marketing rep in 1985 from Satellite Business Systems where I was also a Marketing Rep for business accounts and a Market Analyst as well. At IBM, I went to Marketing training in Dallas and then was assigned to a Navy branch where I worked on a number of Navy accounts including Sparwar, Navfac etc. I transferred 4 years later to the Financial Systems division in Raleigh, NC to become an ATS specialist working on image applications with mortgage companies and banks. I left IBM in 1991 because of illness.
