I am a poet and writer living at the intersection of grace and reconciliation with a home in the Pacific Northwest.  Social Justice issues with an emphasis on Domestic Violence and Poverty are close to my heart. The Writers' Dojo in Portland, Oregon is a place where I've done some of my best writing.  St. Philip the Deacon, is a place where I do some of my best social justice work.

Mom to Doug, Cam and Stephanie, "Nona" to Brayden, Isaac and Alyvia - some of my greatest joy stems from my connections with my family.
