I am the author of "Reinventing Retirement" and the upcoming "Too Much Togetherness", books on the emotional and psychologcial aspects of retirement. While other authors will tell you about saving and investing, my writing deals with the changes we all go through when we retire, whether it is how we relate to our loved ones, how we maintain our self image and self worth, and how we should spend our days in fulfilling and meaningful work.

I'm a small business owner in Portland Oregon. While most people hate talking about money, investing, and retirement, I love it!

First and foremost, I like to say that I am a wife and mother of 2 children above all else. However, I am also a recreation coorindator in a retirement community, a dog owner, a cat owner, a best friend, a sister, a daughter, a cook, a gardner, and on and on. As most women in this millenium, I don't wear one hat, but many. Hopefully I can share of the knowledge and ideas that I have gained through my experiences with the readers!

I wear many hats in my life. I am a wife, mother of three beautiful children, a graduate student and federal employee. In my single life I led a successful singles ministry for a mega church. We offered many opportunities for singles to get together and meet and grow in there love for Christ and start friendships. My graduate degree will be in counseling. My single girlfriends all come to me with their dating issues. Alos, my married friends seek me out for marital counseling from a Christian perspective. My children range from 13 to 19 mo. I also work for a federal agency that specilaizes in Government benefits. I advise people daily on how to utilize these programs and make the most for their retirement. I also really enjoy being married and having a wonderful Christian husband.
