Six years ago, Cindy (apaandssa) fell in love with a Puerto Rican farm planted with dozens of palms, some quite rare. Efforts to learn more led her to the Encyclopedia of Palms in the local library. Soon more books and internet searches directed her to the IPS website and Palmtalk.

Fast forward a few years and palms have become a major interest, thanks largely to this forum.

An unexpected benefit of her palm obsession was attending the Thailand Biennial. Encouragement by IPS/Palmtalk members convinced Cindy to take a more active role. Sitting in on a Board meeting in Thailand persuaded her to join the Palmtalk committee.

She still grows orchids and many other tropicals purely as a hobby. When not playing with plants, she

is a full-time veterinarians in Virginia.

If all goes according to plan, she will retire and move to her farm in 2015.
