I am passionate about my Judeo-Christian faith because God has brought me through so much. Also, I am strongly pro-Israel and politically conservative. My career has been in technical writing and I still take contract work whenever I can. I lost a daughter to suicide eleven years ago, so I understand and empathize with others who have suffered traumatic loss. In September/October 2022, I took a long Mediterranean luxury cruise and fell in love with Italy primarily, but also with Israel and Cyprus. I would love to return. Venice, Florence, the Amalfi Coast and Jerusalem are on my bucket list.
