I am creating a series of books about my life and the life of my family. As a third-generation writer, I have kept photos and journals throughout my life, which will provide the raw material to mine for meaning. Likewise, I'll use writings and photos kept by my parents and grandparents. I currently live in Bellingham, Washington, and teach elementary school music and dance. I lead the Dances of Universal Peace throughout the Puget Sound area, and am a budding climate crisis activist.
