I grew up in a family where we did most every type of thing around the house and in the community: artistically, and professionally. We participated in theater, governance, music, etc. My parents were born in Flint, Michigan, and met in the City Planning Office there. I was born and raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan as part of a socially and environmentally conscious, politically active, highly educated, warm and loving extended family that cooks and eats together, dances together, and is actively involved in being the change we want to see in the world.I was really, really lucky in my childhood, and in my education in the Open Classroom program in Ann Arbor up through high school at Community High.
I believe everyone deserves to grow up in an environment where they are physically safe and cared for, know they are loved, and have the opportunity to learn about the world and themselves.
My husband Brian is a Microbiology Professor at York College of Pennsylvania. Brian and I have an international extended family in the world of science fiction and fantasy fandom, and we hope to stay in touch with all of you! For the moment, though, we are mostly focused on day-to-day life, raising our daughter, herding the cats, and managing my health issues. I have a rare form of carcinoid neuroendocrine tumor that is luckily slow growing but has some significant side effects.
I have been studying the history of York County since we moved here, and have also been involved with several theatrical productions, the William C. Goodridge Freedom Center and Underground Railroad Museum, and various non-profit groups working to promote diverse civil rights, equity and inclusion, and a safer and more sustainable way of life.I am currently a grant writer for the York Jewish Community Center and the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writer's Association.
