Short Bio:

Professionally, I've been a journalist, blogger, editor, event organizer and communications gal. I once canvassed for Greenpeace, sold jeans at the mall at Pantorama Jean Co., and I even (accidentally) worked at a live action RPG summer camp dressed as 1798 Quebec colonial characters :/

I'm also the parent of a little Chiweenie from Chicago, Buster Brown.
