I was a Board of Visitor member for at least 6 years; because a member can only serve two three-year terms on the board I am now an Ambassador.
I enjoy the theatre, ballet and, with my husband, share the love for music. This is why I decided to get involved with students in the College of Fine Arts. We established a scholarship to help a serious student who is trying to reach a goal, but may not be able to accomplish it because of financial problems. My husband and I come from comfortable homes, and both our children were able to finish all their studies without any external help.
After years of attending many events at the College, I realized what a pool of talented students we have. When I heard about a student forced to sleep in his car, or others that may not be able to finish for lack of funds, I decided to share and help, to the best of my ability, some of these student by way of a scholarship.
Since the School of Music is the largest department in the College, I believe it needs the greatest volunteer stewardship. School of Dance has Dance Partners which are of great help. No doubt that there are needs in other departments of the College.
I have been a Real Estate Broker for many years. I am a member of C-21 International Hall of Fame and was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award by Norman Board of Realtors.
