I am a veteran journalist who has had the opportunity to cover stories for news on three continents, and be the interviewer or fly on the wall when business and political decisions are discussed or made. My kaleidoscope career from print to broadcasting to the web while raising a big family of four kids offers an interesting perspective on life. I hope you agree.

Look at the calendar already! It was Christmas and then I blinked and the pages flew past New Year's Day (though there is still a Santa Cookie Jar standing on the hall table and boxes of decorations that have not made their way to storage). Already this ... Read more...
I am not one for making resolutions timed to a date on the calendar. That doesn't mean I shouldn't make changes in my life. But I am a realist. Change happens when it can and when it should not because we are ringing in the New Year. Realizing I am ... Read more...
