Hello! As a former Miss Senior Eugene Oregon USA 2018 my winning platform was giving back to the community via educational mentorship for our future generations. I excel in public speaking which is becoming a lost art (ie, in person communications + connections without use of laptops, phones, chat GPT or remote work). I was a licensed educator for 4 decades. a public relations hiring director for a major Midwest talent agency, and also taught wellness classes with major teaching hospitals (I have two degrees). I want to volunteer my time paying it forward encouraging young people starting out to not give up on their dreams and passions especially in this tight job market and AI world. I was also a national seminar marketing instructor back in the 1990's so I wore many hats. I am now a young age 73, active and upbeat, enjoying giving back in whatever way I can to show my gratitude for the life I was given. I was a film producer and on screen talent for a 10 month You Tube channel about senior baby boomer life reflections to generate discussion and connections with the Gen Z young people to further communications among generations. My 20 episode videography was a hit in year 2024 as I hired and paid 15 undergrad students majoring in film studies and journalism from the Univ of Oregon's SOJC (School of Journalism and Communications) who gleaned experience filming, editing, uploading and marketing my videography series which I created myself. A life well lived... and I am not done yet!
