About Us

At Grandma Explains, we believe that knowledge is power. Our mission is to empower our readers by providing easy-to-understand explanations on a wide range of subjects. Join us on this journey of learning and exploration!

I am a mother of three children, a step-momma of four and a very proud grandma of eleven.  I was widowed and lucky enough to find love again with my sweet Charlie to whom I have been married now for 17 years.

I was raised by two wonderful parents who were civically engaged and active.  Raised by Joan and Bernard, my three siblings and I were challenged and encouraged to participate in political conversations and have a deep commitment to the common good.

I am a retired educator with 50 years of experience in public and private education.  I am proud to have my doctorate degree in public administration with a focus on education.

I am a practicing Episcopalian.  Many of my thoughts are a product of my background, my education, my upbringing and my deep faith. 

Let's talk.
