CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm a maven! I had no idea what the term meant or if it was a compliment even when said to me but luckily I am happy with the title. A maven is a Yiddish word for someone who learns information to pass it along. I often find myself wanting to learn everything about a subject not necessarily to perform in that area but rather just to know and share what I know.

PHILOSOPHY

"Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people."- Eleanor Roosevelt

Music, Movies, and Books

These topics have too much variance in likes for me and I prefer to discuss them in person anyway!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

An experience I find hard to forget is arriving at the Mont St. Michel in France during the day with it being completely accessible. By the late afternoon the tide was coming in to eventually isolate the place until morning when the tide receded. Amazing!
