I was born in the USA but raised in Japan during my most formative years, so who I am is deeply influenced by Asia. While in Japan I did many acting and modeling jobs, but the one that most shaped me were the several years I was Snow White and promoted the opening of the movie. It required a lot of charitable appearances and taught me to joy of giving.

I always think it is best for people to discover who each other is in relation to them so won't say more other than I have been a writer for hire most of my career which means I do the writing, but don't get the credit, but it pays the mortgage, so who cares if you know my name or not! My fall back career was in the beauty industry and I have held a valid california cosmetology license since 1971 and my specialty was skincare and hair cuts. I'm also a published photographer, but it's only a hobby. I have a travel business and have been a professional travel host for a private travel club. The current business that I'm most passionate about brings me full circle to the skincare world, so if you have any issues with your skin and self-image I'm your problem solver!
