Bio - Graduated from MSU in Child Development and Teaching, hired by the City of Ann Arbor where I worked several jobs including 8 years as the Disaster Preparedness Coordinator.  I left employment with Ann Arbor in 1998 to pursue other adventures and re-entered the emergency management field in 2005 when I was hired by Canton Twp as a part time emergency management planner. The township upgraded my position to full time this year. I am certified as a Professional Emergency Manager by MSP.    I have been married for 16 years.  Our hobbies include horseback riding, making home-made wine and enjoying our family and friends company as much as we can.
