I have been involved in genealogy for over 25 years. I have worked with many clients on their research project as well as teaching my own genealogy group called Genealogy Study Group on West Michigan. I have spoken for societies and conferences locally, nationally and internationally, including RootsTech and The Genealogy Show. I also belong to many local, national and international societies and hold leadership positions with many of them.
