the official bio
I like to focus on who I am now, not my history. However I appreciate that many of you 'need' or 'want' to know more about me before you decide to work with me or connect online. This is one reason why I choose to be open and share with you my history.
I also love to show people that there is more behind the person than what presents. For me it is about the variety of interests, learning experiences and career choices I made in my life so far. I could if I want hide and not disclose parts of my past. This is in fact what some people say we 'should' do, ie present just the part of you that you want people to see.
However the journey is also of interest and the diversity of a person's choices whether relevant or not are informing. Behind every one of my life history facts is a story. Behind every choice is a reason or not. In fact most of my decisions to go in this direction or that have been me following my self guided intuitive hunches. When I did what I should rather than what I felt was right, was when I didn't quite go in the direction I wanted.
So read this part of the information about me with a clear knowing that I am more than the facts. I am the person who chose to go in these directions.
In summary, I am defined by who I am on the inside, NOT by what I DID.
The facts, just the facts, for those of you who prefer to see these...
