I am a native San Franciscan. I live today in Las Vegas.
I enjoyed a successful Silicon Valley career as an executive and investor in high tech companies in the medical, pharma, and software fields.
In 1996, I was diagnosed with Early Onset Parkinson’s Disease. My reaction was to start a new life as a business consultant and investor.
In 2000, I joined the Keiretsu Forum, a startup-oriented investor consortium.
I mentored teen entrepreneurs at Oakland High for 4 years, thrilled to see them graduate and go on to successful careers. I am very proud of them all.
I became a Ecstatic Dance DJ in 2019 at age 65. I have enjoyed every minute of this new life. Together with Dawn (also a DJ), we operate the local Ecstatic Dance – Las Vegas.
