About Me: 

Creativity in business and home, that's me! I blog about women in business, drawing from my 12+ years as president of Wilson-Taylor Associates, www.wilson-taylorassoc.com, which designs, launches and manages research projects that measure and support the advancement of women in business. For the accounting, cable, and other industries, we find out how well women do, and how employers can remove barriers to their success. My Women Drivers blog is featured at Bnet.com.

Creativity at home means quilting, embroidery, hospitality and creative writing. With my kids grown up, I've now got the whole wide world to warm and entertain!
