'm a freelance writer with some things published.I worked for the Howard Dean campaign as an organizer in Iowa.
I now live in WA State, have season tickets to Seattle Opera and am active in my County Democratic Party as an elected Precinct Committee Officer.

Update: I'm now Sec'y of the Board of Tacoma Opera and Chair of the Governance Committee which means I get to do things like updating the by-laws. Our 15/16 season: Don Giovanni, Die Fledermaus and Threepenny Opera--!t should be very exciting!
