| Introduction | I grew up in Northern Wisconsin. My Dad's a Rabbi, my Mom's an OB/GYN. You can imagine what kind of child that created. I currently reside at a hippie commune, otherwise known as Hampshire College in Mass. I like to think that I have a sense of humor and I have varied interests. Ultimately the most important thing to me is being able to laugh. |
