I am a professional artist and have been working in my field for more than 20 years.  I am also a businesswoman.  I am a managing partner of La Tienda at Eldorado, a large complex near Santa Fe, New Mexico.  La Tienda is a retail center,  a community center, and an art center.  I was recently named Santa Fe Businesswoman of the Year for my efforts on behalf of the arts and artists at La Tienda.
