About me

Gender Female
Industry Government
Occupation Urban Planner
Location Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Introduction Born and raised in Los Angeles, I had the good sense to leave home and get the hell out of Plasticland at the age of 17. My travels and life have taken me north, first to Davis for University, then to the Seattle and Portland areas to live and work. I'm currently living north of the border in Edmonton, Alberta, with my husband. I'd like to think of myself a frustrated artist, which for me means an artist-at-heart that just doesn't know how to express it externally.
