I graduated with a masters in Intermedia Music Technology from the University of Oregon, which afforded me three careers. I have contracted with software technology companies such as Lunar Logic, Extanto and Symantec. For over 15 years I have been teaching in the Arts Division at Lane Community College in Eugene, and when I have an opportunity, I freelance in sound design, post-production editing and more. I also serve on the board of the Eugene Film Society. I guess you could say I’m a
busy gal!

My greatest passion is as an educator and being a mentor to the next generation of artists. I have been incredibly lucky to have met and worked with so many talented young students over the last decade that now becoming a mentor, giving lessons, and/or offering opportunities for internships and co-ops through the college has turned into a passion. In some ways, the next generation has it so easy, and yet it can be tremendously challenging. We need more seasoned veterans out there guiding the new folks and I hope to continue to do just that.

So yeah… I dare to dream!
