Personal

My husband Scott and I have two sons. I volunteer at their schools and for their Parent Teacher Organizations. I am also a Cub Scout leader and a Destination Imagination coach. I enjoy being active (cycling, weightlifting, walking, boating, skiing, golfing, skating). I have taught group exercise classes for 20 years, including aerobics, kickboxing, circuit training, etc., although these days, it's mostly spinning and yoga. I also like to read, cook, garden, and spend time with family and friends.
