Biz+Pleasure

I work hard and I play hard. That's just the way I am.

My "biz" is capacity building with nonprofit organizations. I have a passion for seeing organizations thrive and be successful agents of change in their community. I offer strategies to strengthen organizational infrastructure and sustain programs. That's my "day job".

My other passion -- what gives me pleasure -- is my love for great food (chocolate and cheese, in particular), delicious wine (I'm on a Chianti kick these days), stunning art and round-the-world travel. Oftentimes, I enjoy these passions with my "partner-in-crime", the love of my life, my husband, Mr. Em.

I hope to share my biz+pleasures with all who care to read it!
