I was a stay-at-home mom who has since had a 25 year association with higher education ministries with the Presbyterian Church U.S.A., United Ministries in Higher Education, the Council for Higher Education Ministries, the Young Adult Ecumenical Forum and now, NCMA.  I graduated from Queens College (now University) in Charlotte, NC in 2001 with a degree in Organizational Communication.  I’m the mother of four, the grandmother of four and am looking forward to the wedding of my oldest granddaughter in September.  I love to read, write, knit, swim and travel.
