I was a very successful hunter/jumper rider from 65-75. I still ride and am training my last foal, Follow Your Heart, aka Stormy. I graduated with highest honors from Rutgers University's College of Pharmacy in 75. I'm a third generation pharmacist and worked in my family's pharmacy until I married a horse vet in 77. I left pharmacy to manage our vet office, equine hospital and breeding farm. In the early 90s, I discoverd my animal communication and healing skills with the help of one of my husband's patients. My husband retired in 04. We sold our farm and moved to the mountains of NC and ended up divorced in 05. The events that unfolded six weeks after moving and how I survived them are the basis of my recent book, LETTING GO: AN ORDINARY WOMAN'S EXTRAORDINARY JOURNEY OF HEALING & TRANSFORMATION. This book had to be written in order for me to understand and heal from the most traumatic event in my life. I then wrote the book I always knew I was meant to write. I've been touched by so many amazing animals, whose stories need to be told, so others can benefit from them as well. My own animals were a crucial componant of my recent recovery. The many animals I've worked with over the years taught me powerful truths that were the foundation for the beliefs that carried me out of my Abyss and through my Tunnel of healing to emerge truly transformed. My second book, TALES OF AN ANIMAL COMMUNICATOR ~ MASTER TEACHERS was released October 2011. It shares the stories and lessons that I learned from the client's filly foal who taught me I was supposed to be an animal communicator & healer as well as my own animals. TALES will broaden your perspective on the significance of your animals to your life and help you develop more meaningful relationships with them.

Letting Go received the 2009 High Country Writers Book of the Year award for Memoir. Tales of an Animal Communicator ~ Master Teachers won the 2011 High Country Writers Book of the Year award for animal communication.
