I came to work at The Wealth Conservancy in 1998. As office manager since 2001 and more recently operations manager, I work very closely with Myra and Steve to keep our firm running smoothly and to maintain the highest standard of client services. I coordinate, evaluate, innovate, motivate, instruct, discuss, remind (nag?), listen, and encourage. I am also the corporate copywriter, proofreader, and editor. Steve has tagged me as being the company "litmus test." His theory is: if I don't understand some financial-speak he has written, it needs to be clarified for general consumption.
I love to spend my free time reading, cooking, and painting (glassware, ceramics, canvasses and walls), as well as designing crafts of various genres. Believing in never-ending personal and spiritual growth, I constantly find myself registering for yet another class or conference, testing my life's limits and extending the boundaries. In September 2007 I enrolled in a six-month-long Human Resources course through Cornell University online. My purpose is to develop skills that will help me to enhance everyone's experience at TWC.
