OK Michèle obviously can't follow directions when told to pick just one answer below...

She is a renaissance woman best described as an enthusiastic teacher, integrating healer, transforming performer, and tenacious student. Curiosity fuels her quest for "whatever works," which has led to connecting with a diversity of cultures and life forms in 31 countries on five continents… so far. Practiced at being a "human doing," she is passionate about sharing healing tools and techniques that nurture the essence of "humans being" at all ages. "Illuminating the possibilities" is her tagline.

Michèle has improv'd careers in Government (NASA & Fed Labs Tech Transfer, Think Tank), Education (Engineering Faculty, At-risk, K-12, Youth/Adult Corrections), Industry (Resorts, Herbologist, Comptroller, Marketing), Non-Profits (Museum of Science and Industry, Equity Theatre, "Causes"), Media (Public Access TV & Film Producer, Alternative Health Radio Host, Film Production), Minister/Healing Arts Practitioner (Reiki, Quantum Touch, EFT, Clinical Hypnotherapist, AVP, 4-D Health Advocate), Agriculture (Organic Community Farm, Bio-Dynamics), Creative Edutainment (Actor/Voice-Over, Movement & Ethnic Dance, Leap and Fly Senseplorations, Author, DiscoveryShops).

So now she is doing it for real in the much scarier world of Live Improv.

If I was trapped on an island for a year and could only have three things with me, they would be:
1) Laptop Mac G5 computer with all accessories connected remotely to the internet and solar/wind powered
2) Massage therapist that lends me an unlimited usage magic wand for everything else I desire and
3) My ever expanding to-read pile

When I was a little kid, when I grew up I wanted to be:
Multi-galaxy famous for anything noteworthy, run away and join the circus performer, back up dancer on the Carol Burnett Show, an alien with super powers.

The worst job I've ever had was (or is):
Comptroller for a too creative accounting & management firm, unqualified substitute teacher with mentally challenged youth.

My first car was a:
1961 sea foam green, Ford Falcon.

I hope it says this on my headstone:
"She bloomed Love, Hope and Passion wherever she was planted."

If I had to hear the same song over and over for 24 hours straight, I would listen to:
Baka Beyond, Cusco, Narada Collections, Yanni, anything Celtic

My nickname(s) growing up was/were:
Mimi, Ming-Chu, Crybaby and Tattletale (thankfully I grew out of the last two by 30yo. OK fine. I'm still sensitive and tear up when frustrated)

BAIT is great because:
It's a nurturing environment where you are encouraged (OK, feels like pushed) to take giant leaps of faith (into the dark abyss) and learn to laugh (really we're laughing with you not at you) when you stumble or fall.  Hey! I keep coming back for more. So, does that make me smitten or bitten?
