Unique traits: Intuitive, problem-solver, able to run a Teleprompter and sound mixer at the same time, and I make crews laugh with my impersonations of people and television characters. I've been mountain biking since 1986 and am still winning mountain bike races (with two total knee replacements) when most women my age are grandmothers. I'm childfree, idealistic yet realistic, joyful, creative, practical, efficient and smart, and I know how to think outside the box.
