Colored pens, I have way more than one person should be allowed to have! Oh and chocolate. Colored pens and chocolate.

The excellent reputation Human TuneUp Company has in the world of bringing out the best in people.

You just never know when an idea is going to change the course of someone’s life and then ripple forth to help our world. This keeps me inspired.

Two things. Treating each other well through service. Appreciating ourselves and each other and acting accordingly.

Teaching and speaking is a thread that runs through my family for generations. My great Aunt Lizzie graduated from Notre Dame when women didn’t even go there and was a teacher then principal.

When I was a child, my aunt Dot was a teacher then principal. I still remember her teaching me how to use the dictionary when I could barely read. I thought words were the best and I loved learning.

When it came time to decide what to focus on in college, I named international relations and teaching as my choices.

Since then, I have lived my dream of traveling and teaching humans from all walks of life and all over the world.

From my firsthand experience of meeting so many of us, I now know we humans are more similar than different and we are all in this together.

They came out of my doodling-pen many years ago. The Dude and Dudette were the first and appeared in my Vital Signs cartoon in The Niles Daily Star in 1997. They have lots of important things to say.
