Curriculum Vitae
Personal Profile
I was born in 1949 in Montabauer, Germany and have lived in Canada since
1957. I won numerous public speaking awards in both elementary and
high school. The high point of my varied working life was the International
Investigative Journalism Award I won during the five years I spent
working as an interviewer in professional radio broadcasting. It was
during this time that I realized I had a passion for researching, learning,
teaching, and counselling.
