Her article "Colorado High Country: Back to My Childhood Home" was published in Road Runner magazine (motorcycle touring and travel) in the October 2014 edition. She is a member of the Idaho Writers Guild. Rae Ann was raised in Colorado and resides in Boise, Idaho. She is a retired clinical social worker, former teacher and violinist with the Boise Philharmonic. She has a part-time private practice, specializing in grief counseling, and is a local facilitator for The Compassionate Friends, a support group for bereaved parents. She gives workshops on surviving adversity and learning to thrive after grief and loss, and stress management for people with chronic illnesses such as Parkinson's. She loves to read, write, spend time with her daughter and grandchildren, travel the world, and take motorcycle road trips. A few minutes after receiving the phone call informing her that her 24-year-old son had died in a triathlon, Rae Ann literally picked herself up off the floor, and began a journey no parent wants to take. She vowed to write a book highlighting David's ten years of extreme kayaking adventures, and sharing his philosophy of living life to the max. With the intent to help others suffering the loss of a loved one, she shares in vulnerable terms, her journey from grief to eventual healing.
