I am a: mother, teacher, runner, seeker, among other things….  What I seek defines me:

• a way to build a sustainable and resilient society founded in cooperation and compassionate curiosity
• a deeper knowledge about the world and our place in it
• satisfying musical endeavors
• my daily DOSE of the essential neurotransmitters (dopamine, oxytocin, seratonin, and endorphins)
• a way to improve myself and the way I live
• friends who will help me learn and grow in this journey through life

I have a B.A. in Latin American Studies from University of Texas - Austin

I also hold an M.S. in Geology from California State University - Los Angeles, which I earned after returning to school and completing most of my science requirements at Austin Community College.

I also spent a stint at University of Illinois - Urbana-Champaign studying Natural Resources & Enc. Sci.

I am a Professional Geologist in the State of California and have worked as a consulting geologist amid myriad other odd jobs.  I will never stop learning.  The day I do, it will be time to say goodbye.

I cannot wait to get back in to the classroom and in to the field!

When not Zooming, I can be found SCUBA diving, running, practicing yoga, reading, surfing, combing the beach, or just hanging out with family playing board games.

I welcome you to come learn about the Earth with me. It is a beautiful and wonderous world we share!
