I am a Foodie, and am passionate about ​cooking at home the meals I experience at yummy restaurants worldwide. I am passionate about creating low-starch and plant-based dishes. Find out more about my 7-step system to creating Elevated and super-healthy salads and smoothies.

When I got over being a shopaholic (yup, I used to buy all the colors of a pair of shoes or blouse that I liked), when we downsized from a 3K square foot house to a 1700 sq ft house (managing our budget was part of our journey to Financial Freedom), I knew more had to change in my life!
I look for lifestyle hacks to streamline my daily routines, health hacks that can be systemized for faster more consistent implementation, money-saving tricks that allows us to enjoy a more luxurious lifestyle while spending less.

I started learning about systems when I studied Computer Science at UC Berkeley. I learned more about systems as a product manager for a leading IT company. I have been really fascinated with SYSTEMS and am always inspired to create one to produce repeatable scalable and predictable experiences, as I have with our company and with our travel.
​I love to organize, and find better ways to do things. I am a life hacker - in all areas! I am curious, energized by finding paths to solve problems in a better way, and think out-of-the-box while sitting in the perspective that there's (always) a smarter way to do things.

I elevate the beauty in food, flowers, travel, experiences, activities, conversation, ETC.

I retired after working ~30 years in hi-tech Fortune 100 companies, starting my career as a Software Engineer, then Sales, then Product Marketing, Trainer, Learning and Development,
Executive Coach, Leader of the Global HP Coaching Network,
Chief Architect of HP's corporate coaching model.
