Active in my community for over 15 years:

Founded and led the FOLC Eclectic Homeschool Group for eight years.

Founding skipper and leader of Occoquan's Sea Scout Ship 7916 for four years. Continue to volunteer for outreach and training.

Key volunteer for The Organization of Virginia Homeschoolers for 10 years, board member for six years, president for three years.

Spearheaded the grassroots coalition that succeeded in persuading the PWC school board to eliminate its onerous and illegal "approval before removal" clause from its policy.

Drove the effort to convince PWC school board to allow partial enrollment for non-public school children. Wrote the draft regulation that the board unanimously adopted almost word-for-word.

Key volunteer on several political campaigns on the local and state levels.

Created and maintain the largest, most active homeschool email discussion list in the Old Dominion (VaEclecticHS, at Yahoogroups). 

Charter member, Virginia Bluebird Society. Assisted with outreach and publications. Monitored a 13-box bluebird trail at Gunston Hall Plantation for 8 years, fledging 250 bluebird nestlings.

Charter member, Occoquan-Woodbridge Optimist Club.

 

I also homeschooled my two children from birth until adulthood, and have volunteered for the county's Sexual Assault Victims Advocacy Service and Project Mend-A-House.

I find joy in the lively arts, gardening, sailing, swiming, kayaking, cycling and having adventures.
