About me

Gender Female
Occupation Professional Opinion-Giver
Location Brooklyn, New York, United States
Introduction I’m a ‘flower child’ who just happens to have been born in the wrong era and in a location that wasn’t exactly at the center of any political or ideological movement. I was born in the United Kingdom – England – and arrived in Brooklyn, New York in….well, let’s just say long enough ago. I have worked and lived in several places -- and travelled globally for work and pleasure -- but, whether in an east coast hippie haven, or downstate in “The B-K”, New York is home for me. After attending multiple institutions of higher education, I joined the rat race (…let me rephrase; I worked my way all the way through every degree I earned). Though a part of corporate America, I consider myself a modern 'hippie' because I retain the ideals of peace, love and universal brotherhood – at least until I watch the news and find myself wanting to slap some folks silly. Kidding. Kinda... Anyway, I think about lots of things and have an opinion on everything. This blog will contain a few of those thoughts.
Interests Anything that makes me think, laugh (does politics qualify?) and enjoy myself. That includes great friends, good food (I'll give up government secrets for a good piece of key lime pie), travel, volunteer work, art...and the list goes on.
Favorite Movies "Eat Drink Man Woman", "Malena", "Under The Tuscan Sun", "Cinema Paradiso"...way too many to list.
Favorite Music Anything played by Prince or Carlos Santana.
Favorite Books The "Chicken Soup" series, biograhies, anything by Shakespeare.
