I have a master's degree in psycosocial nursing with a stress management minor and do family counseling. I have a nutrition degree and have a nutrition/health business using Shaklee products as a tool. I chose to work from home - raising two daughters - and 35 years later am re-launching our business because I have seen the benefits of helping people learn how to be responsible for their own health and live optimally until we die.

My husband, the artist, and I have written six or seven books about our personal and Japanese heritage for the benefit of our grandchildren and future generations and development of their core values. I am currently on the board of an organization raising 15m to build a Japanese Cultural Center in Seattle, WA.

My past is 72 years of learning and growing with plenty of mistakes and adjustments.

God willing, my own and husband's future is an abundant healthy life filled with interaction with our grandkids, friends and new acquaintances. We will continue to write books. We will continue to explore life's mysteries - archeologically, geographically, anthropologically - and I will continue to have lunch with friends and business contacts.
