(From January 2007) I am a life-long Episcopalian and became a member of Transfiguration when Mike and I moved to Palos Heights in 1989. Prior to that time, I was a member of St. Chrysostom's in Chicago. Since joining Transfiguration, I have served on the Landscape Committee, the Newcomers' Committee and the Parish Life Committee. I am currently serving on the Outreach Committee, chair the Memorial Garden Committee and am completing my second term on the Vestry. I have worked for the Social Security Administration since graduating from college and am a Labor Relations Specialist. I represent management in negotiations, grievances and interactions with the Unions that represent SSA's employees. In my spare time, I love to ski, travel, hike, bike and play golf. If elected to the Palos Park Episcopal Day Care and Learning Center Board, I look forward to helping to ensure that the center retains its high level of child care while meeting its fiscal commitments to the Church.
