About Me

I'm a Peace Corps volunteer in Ghana, West Africa, working with cashew farmers as part of the Natural Resource Management program in the Brong-Ahafo region.

I've been a goat milker and herd caretaker, an account manager for CrowdVine, a builder of web sites for cool ventures like MAKE Magazine and Maker Faire, and a volunteer hawk watcher. I'm an aunt to the greatest kids in the world. My other interests include birding and wildlife watching, permaculture, kayaking, writing, painting, and Zen Buddhism. I'm crazy about animals.
