About Me

Just moved (back) to Charleston, SC after two years of grad school in Oly, WA and three years of this and that in Seattle. Good to be home and warm again. Swimming in the warm ocean, hanging out in the yard at night without a jacket on, appreciating the occasional thunder storm that brings warm rain...notice a theme here?

My Interests

Traveling (u.s. and internationally), sewing (mostly quilting), reading, natural history, camping, seeing movies, warm weather, obsessing over the funny things my cat does, being a kick ass teacher...

I'd like to meet:

Right now I'd like to meet a big serving of phad thai from Thai Tom in Seattle. Best phad thai ever. Period.
