I am a semi-retired biochemistry University professor. My research was focused on the use of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy to probe the dynamics and structure of peptides and proteins as they interact with inhibitors and membranes. I taught at the University of San Diego (USD) for about 14 years. I gave up my professorship as the rewards of having a more direct role raising my children called me louder than the frustrations of working in a slowly changing academic environment.
I am fortunate to be able to teach part-time at San Diego Miramar College, rent some vacation properties and have fun developing websites and applications. I've created this site as resource for guests staying my casa in Santa Fe and my cottage in San Diego.
I spend my free time paddle-surfing, practicing yoga, hiking in New Mexico and spending time with friends.
Casa De Colores is a vacation rental home tucked away in a quiet historic east side neighborhood of Santa Fe, New Mexico. From the house, it's a short stroll down Palace Avenue to the Plaza or over Delgado Street to the art galleries of Canyon Road. The Casa is an ideal place to meet friends, to relax, take in the great food, historic sites, unique culture and art of Santa Fe, New Mexico.
