A Boston area transplant now living in Portland, Oregon with my partner Mike and our two dogs, Emma and Serena. My brain never seems to stop generating ideas and projects (to the point that it seriously gets in the way of a good night’s sleep); I consider this site a brain release valve. I’m into art, crafts, home decorating/design, gardening (sort of), sewing, cooking, music, life lists, meditation, and stepping out of my comfort zone enough to keep it interesting.
