I am as friendly as I am energetic. I spent my career as a therapist, and my passion has always been music. If there is tango music playing, I am probably dancing. If there is a park, I might be singing or playing clarinet with friends. I also perform with local ensembles and love the joy of house concerts.

I grew up in a farm community in Pennsylvania, later lived in Virginia and Washington DC, and now call Portland home. Work and curiosity have taken me to fascinating corners of the world. I love learning about people, places, food and culture. I enjoy roadtrips in my Travato camper van, camping under the stars and getting out in nature.

I value kindness, honesty and a spirit of adventure. I try to live my values of peace and justice. I stay active, enjoy working in my garden, and appreciate a good conversation over a simple homemade meal.
