I am a woman, a wife, a mother, a grandmother, an artist and a retired financial technology executive.

I started this blog to keep family and friends updated during Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton in late September of 2024.

Our youngest daughter went off to college in August of 2o24 and we decided to sell our home in Apopka, FL. It sold rather quickly and we moved to our vacation home to live full time on Anna Maria Island, FL on August 28, 2024.

I am an accomplished leader with over 30 years of experience in financial services and technology. Throughout my career at FIS, I held key roles, including Chief Compliance & Customer Advocacy Officer and Senior VP of Banking Solutions, leading large teams and driving transformational change. I am deeply committed to community service, having chaired initiatives for the American Heart Association and served as board chair for Camp Wewa. I was recognized for my leadership, and was named 2019 Business Executive of the Year by the Orlando Business Journal and 2018 Super Woman of the Year by Orlando Family Magazine.
