About Me

I am a happily married Doctoral Student at Arizona State University. Before we moved out here, I was a professor of Music at two colleges in Mid-Michigan,and before that I sang semi-professionally in Boston and NYC. The move to MI opened up a whole new world of possibility to me. The move to AZ will make those possibilities a reality! My Husband and I have three furbabies (kitties) named Rogue, Cecelia and Pippin.
I love living in AZ and could not have imagined a better move. I am overwhelmed, but excited about this journey I am embarking upon. Here's to getting it done in a reasonable amount of time. Click here for your own Eeyore Myspace Layout
