About me

Gender Female
Industry Non-Profit
Occupation Teen Alcoholism Prevention Specialist
Location Juneau, Alaska, United States
Introduction I live on the side of a mountain with two cats, Merry and Pippin (sometimes called The Hooligan Cats) and watch bald eagles circling below my window, and knock on my own front door and yell before I open it from the inside to scare away bears. I stopped being a hippy before the word was in the common vocabulary and am as opinionated as they come.
