I'd much rather have flowers on my table than diamonds around my neck.

I'm a nurse. My husband is a software engineer. We're the proud puppy parents to a cranky old dog lady named Winona. We're nerds. He loves Magic the Gathering and tai chi boxing. I love binge-reading library books and spending time in nature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was in the first Vagina Monologues staged on the National Mall in 2004. The threat of potentially getting arrested while performing such a powerful piece of theatre- that's inspiring!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a nurse... I'm really interested in integrative health, health advocacy, shamanic healing, and singing. My husband is a teacher of tai chi boxing. I love to cook.
