Before losing her vision to Retinitis Pigmentosa, Rowena Portch wrote and edited for Microsoft and Osborne/McGraw-Hill. Having been forced to retire from the technical field, she and her husband, Gregg, opened a wellness center where they could share their combined passion for the powerful medicine of herbs and helping people heal. In her spare time, she enjoys promoting health, backpacking, and appreciating nature. She may be blind but she certainly does not lack vision.
