I am originally from a small town called Alamogordo, New Mexico. I lived in California for 42 years then moved to Bremerton in May of 2003 after marrying my long lost high school sweetheart.

I am a community volunteer. I am a Bremerton Area Chamber of Commerce member and on the Membership and Marketing Committee, and the Armed Forces Day Committee. I help the Chamber in anyway that I can. I am a member of the Bremerton Central Lions and am a board member and the social director for the Lions. I am also an Elks Member of Elks Lodge 1181, I serve as the Liaison for Girl Scouts for the Elks and help with youth activities. I am now a member of the Kitsap 911 Memorial Project and am proud and honored to be a part of this wonderful project that means so much to me.

I am a mother of 5 and have 6 grandchildren. I have been married to my wonderful husband for 8 years. I love doing community volunteering and my pay is seeing the smiling faces when a project, activity or the job is done. I feel on top of the world when I am helping others.
