She is listed in the Cambridge Who’s Who Registry of Executives and Professionals, has been a member of multiple state, national, and international organizations promoting women’s issues, is founder and director of the Women’s Financial Focus Groups of Minnesota, serves on academic and financial boards within her community, and is an author of both non-fiction books on wealth management and novels about Wall Street.

In 2020, her work was nominated for the Minnesota Book Award, Best Indi Book Award, and Writer’s Digest Book Award.

The meeting begins at 7 p.m., Riverland Community College’s west building in room A238. People are encouraged to arrive early if they want to mix and mingle dessert. The public is encouraged to attend.
