Hi. I'm Patricia Rose Grigadean. Welcome to my website. I wanted a way to document a few of the things I've done in my life that matter to me. A sort of digital legacy. And here it is. Thank you for visiting!

I was born in Houston, Texas, in 1953, and have lived in Austin, Texas, Easthampton and Northampton, Massachusetts, Bloomington, Indiana, finally back to Austin which has been home since 1980. Over the years I've had several occupations, including being a secretary at various companies and nonprofits; a Planned Parenthood patient service provider and community health educator; an answering service telephone operator; a professional mediator, conflict management consultant, and trainer; and an employee relations specialist at a private university.

But the work I'm most proud of, and had the most fun doing, was as singer, songwriter and performer; a music video performer, writer and producer; a (published!) writer and poet; and an elder care provider, singing old songs one-on-one with dementia patients.  On these web pages, I hope to preserve and share some of that work.
