I was drawn to the various social justice actions in the late ‘60’s during the anti-war movement which included several trips for the Washington DC marches. Hard to imagine I’ve fighting this battle for 52 years. Anyway, that early foundation led to a life-long zeal to do what I could to fight for a more just society that put people and the environment first.

As my 40-year executive management career in business services outsourcing started to slow down in 2005, I used a lengthy severance to shift my focus to giving back to the community and photography. I have been involved in non-profit Board work for the last 15 years principally with organizations that support with people with disabilities. As a parent of a daughter with developmental disabilities I am a serious advocate for their rights to inclusion, housing, mobility, healthcare, and equality.

For me photography is a passion, an art form and most importantly a tool of social justice movements. The ability to capture the passion of the movement and to share the images with a broad audience spreading their messaging is extremely valuable.

I’m originally from Chicago, grew up and was educated in Florida and now after many relocations Mill Valley has been our home for the last 36 years.

I have been a Pro-Bono Photo Affiliate since 2017 and have done well over 70 Social Justice events in the last 3 years.
