My lifetime experiences are varied. There’s just too much available to pick only one thing to do all my life. I have been or currently am:

• Nationally Registered Paramedic, UAMS, 1985;
• Certified Paralegal, University of Arkansas, 1993;
• American Mensa, Ltd., member, 2002.
• Permitted Educational Sign Language Interpreter, 2005.
• Certified End-of-Life Doula, University of New England, 2026;
• National End-of-Life Doula Alliance, member;
• NEDA Proficient;
• (In-progress) Certified Dementia Doula, UNE, 2026;
• Egalitarian by nature; and
• Follower of Yeshua: not quite Jewish, not quite the standard Christian.

In 2003, I provided 24/7 care for a dear friend during his 11-month hospice journey; and again in 2006, for another friend during his 4-month hospice journey. I’ve been in your shoes.

What sets me apart is the variety of professional and personal experiences I bring that will prepare you to be more equipped and less overwhelmed.
