I have been self employed most of my life and what I do now is run a business that is dear to my heart. I manage about 50 other volunteers, create new programs, research specific animals and animal groups, speak at programs, handle animals, manage marketing and advertising, do the fund raising such as it is and shovel poop. Motherhood is probably the best basis I have for doing what I do now. Our goal at WOWEE is to reach people at a deep level and stir them to action - small or large to encourage kindness to animals, but kindness to other people and kindness to the earth itself.Specialties: I do not have the benefit of much formal education, a couple of years of college, but I am blessed with some natural talent and have pursued life with enthusiasm and curiosity. I am articulate and passionate. I am honest and forthright. I have been in a variety of businesses, have lived abroad, have developed a style that seems to suit me and allows me to get things done.
