From December, 2012 to the present, I have taken advantage of the time by travelling back to the West Coast

several times to visit family and friends, as well as a trip to Australia last spring. Since my return, I have

become more involved with my choir, serving on its Board of Directors for six months, and this fall co-

chairing its Production Committee, which oversees and organizes our semi-annual concerts.
