Florida native living and working in the nation’s capital.

Profile photo is a picture of a banner from a local neighborhood street pole that I have in my house depicting the late great Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Other pictures in profile.

My groups and interests lists give a sense of my interest and identifies. Feel free to ask me about any of them.

Sundays are for resetting and getting ready for the week and I work from home on Thursdays so I prefer not to host then but it’s not a hard and fast rule - just ask.
