About

I am a lucky woman — not only am I mother of two great boys, but my day job is devoted to thinking about how to help people live a little greener. Life is good.

Still awake?

Not for long. What follows is my official bio that you’ll find if you go to the About Us page for RiverWired.com and GreenHandsUSA.com.
