BBO is acting slow and funny today. Hope everybody registers early. Be patient, noon is their heaviest volume time. If the game disappears, look for it to reappear in a few minutes. Paula

Originally from Boston, Paula began playing bridge at home as her father’s partner, while her mother took a break and served desert and coffee. She joined the high school bridge club, playing Friday evenings at a different students’ homes. In college November 2020 page 11 (University of Texas at El Paso), she enjoyed playing bridge between classes in the Student Union. After receiving her B.A. and M.S. in mathematics, Paula spent the next 30 years in Southern California raising four children while pursuing a career with Pacific Bell/ATT and teaching Math part-time at College of the Canyons. A few years before retirement she rekindled her interest in bridge and signed up for Rand Pinsky’s Beginning Bridge series in 1999, quickly becoming addicted to duplicate bridge. After retiring in 2002 Paula became a certified director, bridge teacher and life master. In 2007 she moved to Rosarito Beach, Mexico where she taught bridge classes, helped two clubs become sanctioned ACBL clubs, and coached 5 players to become directors. She also began teaching and directing bridge on cruise ships doing 26 cruises over the next 12 years on Princess, Royal Caribbean, Cunard, Holland American, Azamara and Seabourn cruise lines. Back to Valencia in 2011, Paula continued teaching bridge in her home and started the Friendly Bridge Club in 2012 as a place for her students to play together.
