Throughout my career, I’ve been committed to ensuring that all children have access to a quality education. I’ve seen the education field through many lenses--I've been a teacher, reading specialist, choral accompanist, youth program director, curriculum writer and trainer, grant writer, and educational program designer and developer.
I'm also a certified Reiki practitioner, and more interestingly (and perhaps unusually), I work as a professional Intuitive and Medium. Recently, I quit my job, sold my house, and moved to Brazil. You can read more about my adventures on my personal website, Live Your Bliss.
Contributing to Suite101 fulfills my dream of being a published author. Look for my articles on Health and Wellness, the Law of Attraction, and living in South America.
