Biography
For 70 years I've been a singer in church, community musicals, and classical works with major symphony orchestras. These days I listen more than I sing. After 40 years, I recently retired from teaching (music, language arts, math, and mindfulness) in public middle schools, high schools, and community colleges. Today, I practice mindfulness and social justice.
Why I support the Compassion Coalition
The work and teaching of Rick Hanson has profoundly changed my life and because of that, changed the communities in which I live and work. I know and trust his integrity and effectiveness. When I learned of his venture in creating this organization, I knew I wanted to be a part of it, and make a substantial gift to help lay a firm foundation.
