in the computer industry, tax director for a national insurance company and
                founder and Associate Publisher of the first regional woman's magazine in
                Wisconsin, all while maintaining her professional credentials as a CPA.

                     Her focus quickly changed to education as she watched her own three
                children  grow.  It  was  a  struggle  to  get  them  to  read.  They  would  rather
                watch TV.
                     So  she  was  delighted  to  join  forces  with  the  inventor  of  the  first
                electronic “talking book” and help expand the electronic book industry to a
                multi-million dollar international market. Today, she remains a pioneer in
                developing new technologies to bring the book back into

                     children's lives.
                     As her own children grew, she was keenly involved in their education.
                She became a vocal activist in the areas of mathematics, computers, reading
                and writing education.
                     “Our current educational system has not been able to keep pace with the
                global and technological  changes  in  the  world  today.  We  must  teach  our

                young people the skills, both scholastic and financial, that they will need
                not only to survive, but to flourish, in the world they face.”
                     As co-author of Rich Dad Poor Dad and the CASHFLOW Quadrant she
                now focuses her efforts in helping to create educational tools for  anyone
                interested in bettering their own financial education.
