Member Bio
I am a serial entrepreneur with more than 50 years' experience. My first business venture was to own and operate a licensed preschool and kindergarten. The second was a marketing consulting practice and the current one is Trade Press Services, a strategic marketing communications firm, which I started almost 29 years ago. I was born and raised in Southern California and have a bachelor's degree in psychology from the University of California at Santa Cruz. My interests are being of service to others, continuing education, duplicate bridge and a passion for traveling... anytime, anyplace.
