About me
I am an active local guide in my local Southeast Atlanta neighborhood which sits on a Civil War battlefield. I lived in Atlanta more than 30 years. “I thoroughly enjoy sharing what Atlanta has to offer, historically, culturally, and politically. I especially love sharing the history and vibes of its unique neighborhoods, from charming Victorians, renovated warehouses, old mill workers' housing, and our ever-changing business center in Midtown.” This includes seeking out interesting things to see and do in this ever-growing city. Instilled with the love of culture, history, and travel since childhood when she first picked up a copy of National Geographic magazine, I have always drawn to learn more about people and places throughout the world and has travelled to Japan, Israel, Greece, Germany, and Italy. My interests include getting out into nature, photography, discovering out of the way quiet spots, and volunteering for various nonprofits.
