I’m an easy going, easy to get along with, independent physical therapist with a good work ethic and ability to problem solve. I am pretty handy and like doing all kinds of new things. I have raised 4 great kids who are all off on their own. Travel, people and languages are some of my favorite things and being active, outdoors, and near water keep me happy! I make pretty good crew and especially love destination sailing, so far in the BVIs, and on the Chesapeake and the Long Island Sound. Interests include regular yoga & meditation, and improving my culinary skills and my French. I like healthy food and activities along with practicing sustainable living. I am fully vaccinated and follow medical guidelines for safety.

She is a lovely person and… read more
