As far back as I can remember, I have been intensely and constanly dedicated to the greatest art of all: the ART of LIVING AND LOVING (for I 'see' there cannot be one without the other). I have a Doctoral degree and, in my professional life, I side with people so they can recover or find their own art in living.This is one facet through which I express who I am but, whilst not making any claims of excellence in these other fields, I can also say I am a: dancer, advanced scuba diver, painter, capoerista, writer of prose and poetry (although I only have published two articles in professional journals), thinker&conversationalist, hair-stylist/dresser and traveller. I have been an actress (studied in the Real Escuela Superior de Arte Dramatico, Madrid), designed and made my own clothes and other things, and applied myself to painting&decorating, gardening, carpentry, tiling, flooring, electrical and plumbing home jobs, in sum anything that needs doing I try myself!I am a lover of LIFE, people and all that lives, and an 'explorer': if it challenged but did not compromise my psychological or physical integrity, I have tried most everything that has come my way at least once!******************************************Ahora en español:Toda mi vida me he dedicado intensa y constantemente al ARTE supremo de VIVIR y AMAR (pues ‘veo’ que lo uno va necesariamente unido a lo otro). Tras mi Doctorado, en mi vida profesional, dÃa a dÃa me uno a personas en el reclamo o búsqueda de su propio arte de vivir.Esta es una forma en la que doy expresión a quien soy pero, sin hacer alardes de excelencia en otras facetas, también soy una: bailarina (quizás ‘bailaora’ sea más acertado), submarinista avanzada, pintora, capoerista, escritora de prosa y poesÃa (aunque sólo tengo publicados dos artÃculos en revistas profesionales), pensadora&conversadora, estilista/peluquera y viajera. He sido actriz (estudié en la Real Escuela Superior de Arte Dramático, RESAD, Madrid), diseñado y confeccionado ropa y otras cosas, me he ocupado con la jardinerÃa, carpinterÃa, colocado azulejos y suelos y hecho trabajos caseros de electricidad y fontanerÃa, ¡vaya, cualquier cosa que haya que hacer, hago el intento!Soy una amante de la VIDA, la gente y todo lo que vive, y una ‘exploradora’: si me retaba sin comprometer mi integridad psicológica y fÃsica, he probado todo lo que se me ha puesto por delante!****************************************************
