I began my work with Community Theater at CSTOCK in 1993 with my first stage performance in "Bye Bye Birdie". I portrayed Mrs. MacAffee. Since then I have performed in, stage managed, crewed or run lights for shows at CSTOCK, BCT, PAGSK, Evergreen Children's Theater, The Jewel Box, and Kitsap Opera. I retired in August 2008 from 22-1/2 years or enjoyable work with Central Kitsap School District as a classified employee. Fifteen of those years were spent as an ASB Bookkeeper . . . that was my favorite job. My home life is filled with many feet and lots of barking. I am the happy owner of four dogs and one cat. I also foster dogs who a in the process of finding a permanent home. I also volunteer at the Kitsap Humane Society doing new volunteer data inputting. I was born and raised in Southern California. I moved to Kitsap County, WA when I was 32 years old, bringing with my my two elementary-aged children. I am now the grandparent of two - a granddaughter and a step-grandson.
