My interests include Music (after moving to Portland, I started taking piano lessons and ballroom dancing lessons again, and for a year sang in the 100 woman Aurora Chorus), theater, concerts, and recently Dragonboat paddling on the Willamette River. A few books I've liked include The Kite Runner, Girl Who Played With Fire, The Swerve, The Idea of Justice, and Team of Rivals. A few movies I've liked inclu...Expand for more
