Raised in New Jersey and the Philadelphia area, Elizabeth married and moved to Syracuse, NY and later settled in Rochester, NY.  She and her husband Ray (now deceased) retired to Hendersonville in 2004.  While raising her children, she was a Social Studies high school teacher.  After six years, she left teaching and became a real estate agent where she balanced that busy schedule while working on a book about the massive transition that humankind is embroiled in today.   In the nineties, she left real estate to focus on the book. Once the book was complete, having always loved dogs, she worked to become a professional dog trainer.  With the addition of an Irish Setter in her life, she fell in love with the breed and showed them successfully in Confirmation and Obedience with a few champions to her credit!  After 40 years of joy with this breed, she sadly had to put her last Irish Setter down in March 2020.  Feeling the need to downsize, she now has a Medium Bernedoodle, “Daisy”, whose biggest fault is that she too enthusiastically loves everyone!!

Elizabeth has a keen interest in the social, psychological, technological and existential problems we face today and how we can positively affect the direction of our future and that of the planet.
