I think creative expression is a powerful tool for humans to connect in our world. I am not artistic, I draw stick figures, but I understand even those can be useful to understand my inner life.

I’m married with no children, unless you count furry ones. I have a Great Dane named Crom, and an English Pointer named Squirrel. I’m an Auntie of 14 nieces and nephews, and great Auntie of two great nephews and two great nieces.
