Make my breath catch and my heart beat out of control...

Hi -- thanks for stopping by. Let's see, who am I?

I am an entrepreneur, artist, and music lover. I adore people, design, dogs, community, and the arts. I grew up in San Rafael and have lived in the Bay Area most of my adult life. I was born in New York and commuted between Boston and NYC for three years during the 1980s. I've owned three businesses here, been a business and nonprofit executive, a Rotarian, and have a wide and diverse group of friends and family in the area.

I'm Big Sister to an 8 year old girl who I adore. I'm looking to rescue a one year old Husky or Golden Retriever and absolutely adore dogs. I've recently launched a new chapter in my life - fostering my creative side as an artist, photographer and home revitalization resource. I'm allowing my passion for fabrics, colors, and textures as well as a wellspring of attraction and connection to healing arts, the universe, imaginal art, dance, dreamscapes and visioning guide my days...

I left the corporate world after 25 years to find something to feed my soul -- and found it in the nonprofit sector. Then in May of 2014 I left my job as Senior Director of Development for Big Brothers Big Sisters of the North Bay to embark on the amazing, emotional, frustrating, exciting and educational journey of cleaning out my family home of 50 years after the death of my mother.

Much to my surprise I discovered I have a real passion for and interest in the home revitalization process. In spite of the fact that I originally set out to remodel it as a rental, I fell completely in love with both the house and the art of remodeling. I’m now living in my childhood home, built in 1964 but now basically brand new – and running ‘Remodel Resource,’ my new business, out of it.

I'm looking for a romantic relationship - a lover and a playmate. I'm pretty established and self-sufficient -- what I'm missing is a special man with whom to share my leisure time and have fun. I want to meet a man who appreciates the joy and anticipation a romantic relationship can bring, and can steal away the time to grab a day at the beach or a weekend in the mountains or a midnight picnic. Chemistry is critical, so is a sense of fun, a love of laughter and an enjoyment of sensual pleasure.

I'm looking for someone who is interesting and interested! I'd like to meet a man who is able to recognize and appreciate the magnitude of universe outside themselves and who seeks to have a positive impact. I am drawn to people who genuinely strive to make the world a better place.

Please, be free enough of your past relationships to enjoy a new one with an open mind and heart, and, if our stars align and the earth moves, not be diametrically opposed to falling in love...
