Born in San Francisco, US in 1943. Arrived in Israel in 1968.
"C'mon kids, let's go fix something” my father used to shout to my excited brother and I, calling us to join him on a "fixing" project. My father taught us the pride and satisfaction of handyman work. When I arrived in Israel in 1968 I started to help friends with small home repair jobs. When one elderly friend asked me to install support bars in her bathroom a whole new market opened up to me. I left my teaching and design work and dedicated all my time in the installation of support equipment for the elderly and disabled. Being a woman is an advantage in my work. Often my clients are elderly single women and they are relieved to see a non-threatening presence entering their home. And I always leave the work area nice and clean.
