Introduction	I'm an artist. I grew up in the Midwest, where I learned my manners, but now live in Vermont, where I learned how to organize & protest. Living with my partner and our cat, I (used to) work as a computer tech for a couple of local non-profits by day and in my home studio in the evening and on weekends. I aspire to build an off-grid home (DONE), tour the world by bicycle (CURRENTLY DOING - see www.2cycle2gether.com), and learn to like broccoli (fat chance). Every day I furiously debate whether I should be cynical or optimistic about the state of the world. That battle often ends in about a 40% cynicism/60% optimism ratio, depending upon how sunny it is that morning.
