Who am I?
I'm a writer, rider and lifelong learner of all things horse. Plus my books inspire wanderers to explore new places.

I live by a dream-induced question from a too-young-dead friend,
'If not now, then when?' And the knowledge that 'some day', is not a day of the week. I'm happiest in wild places in any weather. Although sun is nice. With friends, horses and chocolate.

I can't be a spectator. Why watch when you can be part of the action?
And recommend following (almost) every opportunity that comes along. You never know where it may lead.... But I've been advised by friends that, 'She who does the most doesn't live the longest.' So... just. chill. out. |
If success is not on your own terms, if it looks good to the world but does not feel good in your heart, it is not success at all. Anna Quindlen
I was born in our nation's capital (geography quiz) to an engineering father, a botanist mother and an older sister. A brother came along a bit later, ensuring that I became the attention-seeking middle child.
Family themes included environmentalism; a healthy dose of outdoor activities; mountains; sailing; eating home-grown veggies; volunteering; and travel. Fortunately the folks were organic gardeners and avid environmentalists, reducing the possibility that I would become the creator of GMOs for Monsanto.
Along the way I became completely derailed by horses (aka Rider).
In between horses, I've learned to fly planes and paragliders, climbed rock and ice, won bodybuilding competitions, skied mountains, designed and built a house after renovating too many, lived in England and Australia, become a scientist and spent 14 years remediating contaminated sites, trained as a professional chocolatier, got trained by my dog, unintentionally retired, and wrote a bunch of words that people seem to like reading. Some of that I'm still doing (see Freelance Articles and Author).
