CURRENT MISSION

Have good conversation with diverse, interesting people.

ABOUT ME

Wow, where to start. I have many interests outside of work. I hike, run, dance (all kinds - Lindy/Swing, Zydeco, Clogging, Contra, Salsa, etc.), play the recorder (type of flute), volunteer with the Mediation Center (note... Mediation, not Meditation) and with Building Bridges (we facilitate community dialogues on Black-White relations), coordinate an advanced Spanish-conversation group, and more.

PHILOSOPHY

Never stay in a job I wouldn't do for free.
There is no need to be "better than."
When given a choice, chose the route that will be most memorable.
