I grew up on the east coast, went to high school in Michigan and college in the New England area. In college, I studied art and also spent some time studying landscape design after I moved to the Northwest in the 1970's.
Having run our new construction company with my husband, I redirected my passion for gardening and flowers and opened a flower shop in downtown Port Townsend in 1981. In 2006 after 25 years, I sold the shop to experience some other aspects of business related matters.
Mid 2012 began my role as assistant manager of Quimper Mercantile. In 2017 I replaced our general manager after having been 1/2 of a solid management team for nearly 5 years together. I look forward to continuing the legacy and success of this community venture.
