Short Biography:

I grew up in Virginia, and attended women’s schools there from kindergarten through college. My first co-educational experience was in graduate school, where I met my husband, John. We have two sons, one in high school and one in college. We have lived overseas in Australia and enjoy traveling with our children. Other hobbies include photography, sailing, needlepoint, and collecting art.
