About me

Gender Female
Industry Education
Location Boulder, Colorado, United States
Introduction What do you want to know about me? The roles I've taken on? My interests? My 'identities?' The story I tell is this: I used to be a physics nerd who dropped out of med school, then a physics nerd that dropped out of her PhD program, and a farmer who used to own llamas and alpacas and chickens. Now I'm just a nerd who likes physics and works at a Buddhist university. I have been known to be a teacher, a union organizer, an environmentalist, a belly dancer, a grad student, a Jew, a mentor, a knitter, a scifi geek, an organic gardener, a cheese maker, and an administrator. I have lived as a suburbanite in St. Louis, a City Girl in DC, a Californian in the slums of La Jolla, a farmer in rural-ish Colorado, and a yippie Boulderite. Seriously. I aspire to live a life where I to work hard, don't complain, don't covet other people's happiness, and love the ones I love with all I've got. And even when I think things are going well, I know the universe will throw me curve balls. I aspire to live a life of non-aggression, and I don't always succeed. Being human can be so joyous and heartbreaking. Much gratitude.
Interests cooking, knitting, reading, gardening, travel, scifi, math, science, politics. geez, I'm a giant geek.

Your people want to make a statue in your honor. What will it be made out of and what victory will it commemorate?

Cheese. It will commemorate the first time I made cheese!
