I have been a professional musician since I was 11, also worked as an editor-in-chief of music magazines, then was asked to help on an arts commission for the mayor of New York City and ended up as his assistant chief of staff. When I moved out of the city and had my son, I was a media consultant for a variety of clients and was eventually hired to as a public information officer for a municipality. For the last twelve years I've owned an internet business and now focus primarily on making veils.
