I moved to the big apple in 1999, lucky me!<\/h5>\n

Life moves on.<\/p>\n

After spending 20+ wonderful years in the Big Apple, I came back home to South Florida in 2019. It’s wonderful to once again see great friends and return to \u201cparadise.\u201d I am blessed.<\/p>\n

My three boys (now all good men) respect the dignity of others, are kind, have wonderful life partners, are healthy, and are raising their families. My two grandsons are the light of my life. Did I say, that \u201cI am blessed?\u201d<\/p>\n

As for me, I retired in 2019 after many, many years in Information Technology. I have forgotten how to spell I.T. \ud83d\ude42 Life is good! I am healthy, pursuing my passions, have an amazing life partner \u201cJean\u201d and count every day as a blessing.<\/p>\n

What a Wonderful World (thank you, Louis Armstrong). It is amazing to be surrounded by wonderful people from HHPA and others that I\u2019ve known for a lifetime. Jeff Saver and Rick Apseloff\u2026 a man never had better friends!<\/p>\n

For the third time, “I am RICHLY blessed \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

After graduation<\/h5>\n

From Nova in ’72, I attended Rollins College and earned a BA in music with a major in applied voice. It was difficult to be earning a degree in music and do theatre, but I did manage to be a part of the FANTASTIKS (Luisa) and MUSIC MAN (Zenita Shinn).<\/p>\n

I spent some time in NYC and New Jersey after graduation and thought I’d like to do studio work or voice overs. It was a lot more difficult than I thought! In the middle of this I married my college beau who worked in the financial district in NYC.<\/p>\n

I wasn’t planning on being a music teacher, but while I was visiting my parents in Cape Cod, the telephone rang… and I was hired! I’ve now been teaching in the same school for nineteen years. I direct two choruses and a select show choir. I’ve been the musical director for several musicals at both the middle school and high school levels as well as the director of many revues and variety shows.<\/p>\n

I’m still married and have three children ages 12, 9, and 5. My husband owns a local CPA firm.<\/p>\n

In recent years I’ve sung with the Chatam Chorale, the MasterSingers of Cape Cod, and the Mostly Medievil Carolers. I’ve been a part of the musical GUYS AND DOLLS and KISS ME KATE. I’ve also been having a great time being a substitute singer; it’s always an adventure.<\/p>\n

In 1983, I turned professional and performed in shows In Miami, New York City, and Aruba. I retired from Show Business in 1987.<\/p>\n

For the past 32 years, I have enjoyed a career as a Mortgage Banker. I was the producing Branch Manager with Wells Fargo Home Mortgage for 17 years, managing upwards of 15 loan officers and producing 30 plus million per year in residential mortgage loans.
