I am an antique store owner, a former mayor of Springfield, Oregon, and a University of Oregon graduate in Theatre Arts. As a "professional volunteer," I have served on many boards and committees throughout my life, but acting and dancing have always been my love. Encore brings it all together.

After performing with Encore for a year, I'm "on leave" to spend time with my two children and five wonderful grandchildren, not to mention my very supportive husband of 45 years. While on leave, I continue to serve on the Encore Board of Directors.
