I graduated from the University of Waterloo. I retired after having taught school geography for 31 years, including serving as head of department and writing on curriculum committees. I am a published writer and since 1989 a small business owner. When not writing or managing my business, I spend time at my other passions: dogs, genealogy, sailboat racing, reading, watching movies, following ice hockey and baseball, preparing and eating good food, tasting new wines, listening to jazz, and gardening. Recent illnesses within my immediate family- cancer, Crohn's- have educated me on the importance of advocacy, care-giving, and the management of one's own health and environment.ver menos
