GoodWinds Music
Mary's favorite music gig is the pit orchestra where she enjoys
mentoring young players in woodwinds.
"You have inspired me to dig deeper into the music, to connect with it.
To not just play notes, but create music and memories for myself and others. Thank you so much for working with me."
--- BFL, high school junior, clarinet
"Mary is an extremely talented musician, both in her vocal abilities as well as in her talents on the oboe and mandolin.
I often made special trips to hear her perform in concert. Her style is very mellow, very spiritual, very inspired.
She plays folk, classical, religious music, and show tunes. She is very accomplished and easy to listen to."

Health Education -- With a Twist: "Curative Characters"
In 2008, while working as a community health nurse in reservations in San Diego county,
Mary invented Auntie Stress-Stella, a health fortune teller who has a knack
for giving out advice on Wellness through comic means.
When doing a "Healthy Fortune", Mary fully disclaims that "this is gimmic"
but it sure makes education FUN. Mary then invented 4 other characters to address
other needs: Caregiver Support, Cancer and Chronic Illness, Death and Dying.
Three are pictured below, and yes, they are copyrighted! Not pictured: Fiona O'Lafferty, OMG and We'Alwyn
