Served as board chair for 11 years at Challenge Unlimited at Ironstone Farm has been a honor . I've felt humbled and privileged each time I walk the grounds where so much heart felt help is given to those in need of therapy. Ironstone is staffed by the most exceptionally skilled therapists, who have chosen to do their vocational therapy with children and adults on horseback. These unique programs are given special attention, feedback and guidance by the wonderful staff and the caring board of directors that oversee the operations and funding of Ironstone Farm. It was a real pleasure to work with such caring and motivated individuals.

Shameless ChefsThey used to be a happy well adjusted family. They unfortunately, thought it might be fun to have a special meal prepared by caring hands. Nothing they had ever experienced could have prepared them for what would happen next. Their lives would change that fateful day the Shameless Chefs came to cook.Hold onto your skillet and prepare to be shocked! It’s ok to be scared. Watch The Shameless Chefs transform their meaningless unfocused lives by bringing ridiculous humor to the kitchens of unsuspecting families. Warming hearts and burning napkins, while they make every meal stick in the minds and some pans of our generous yet naive benefactors. The set up: One optimistic member of a family or overly confident organization invites the Shameless Chefs to prepare a memorable meal. Only one person knows of the upcoming culinary ambush so the rest of the household is surprised as the chefs’ start ransacking the place searching for ingredients, utensils and inspiration for the perfect meal.The goal: Fun, fun, fun, fun and more fun. No one knows what they will do next in their pursuit of serving up family and friends a heaping bowl of laughter.

Good mentors make the difference in all fields of education. Inspirational mentors can liberate the greatness in us, while leading to a standout vocational experience. I've been extremely fortunate in my life to have worked closely with some amazing professionals who would instruct me in learning a skill set and add the spark of imagination that made the vocation truely satisfying. I always strive to bring this level of excitment and enthusiasm to teaching, whether it's someone who is assisting in the clinic or a class room atmosphere. Most of the classes I've taught at NESA have been around communication and business development. I began, like many other practitioners who teach, discussing how to create better patient outcomes. This is exactly what students are in school to learn. However; I found that communication is essential to success. Being able to clearly explain your methods of care, lay out a well understood treatment plan with agreed upon metrics of improvement are also key elements to a successful patient outcome. Also, most patients will leave and their family and friends are curious about acupuncture or herbs. As practitioners, we need to help our patients to understand our medicine and give them resources to help others know about how we can help their bodies heal. Understanding drives a practice as well as patient outcomes. Patients then know their own part in the process and are able to reach out for better tools so that you assist them and empower them towards long lasting health habits. That's practicing inspirational medicine.

I was given a unique opprtunity to pioneer the use of food grade herbs in beverages that were marketed nationally. Mike Sullivan of Comfort Foods brought me in as an equity partner to develop some of the first coffe based beverages that combined GRAS status herbs with coffee. The diverse set of products ranged from whole bean, ground and ready-to-drink varieties all made with the finest sourced beans with gourmet cafe flavors. I was involved with every phase of production including cupping inported coffee, working in the lab on new product development, establishing distribusion channels, while developing sales and marketing materials. I worked directly with our DC legal team in developing formulas that met regulatory standards, manufacturing requirements and distributors shelf life requirements.
