My motto is to be the best person you can be. This requires an inquiring mind, being well informed and setting high standards for both myself and others. Humbleness and placing others above self contributes to this philosophy.

Being a mother of three children has given me valuable life lessons and broadened my experiences of human nature, circumstances and the need to employ flexibility due to uncertain and changing times.
