I grew up in Waterbury Center Vermont a mile down the road from where I live  . My father was a local school teacher and my mother was a woodworker. I spent all my time stacking wood, ski-racing as a child while I dreamed of oceans . I still do today ! After finishing an engineering degree, I lived in California for a number of years and subsequently Australia and Europe working . I also  chased  waves , experiencing life abroad and collected  two passports. I returned to Vermont and was lucky enough to have been able to return and  live in one of the most beautiful areas of Vermont.   I hope you enjoy Vermont as much as I do .
