Recently moved back to the East Bay from San Diego.
I taught sustainable urban agriculture at a local college and am now involved in gardening projects here, while exploring and enjoying the Bay Area.

Growing food
Spending time with friends
Writing
Imagining what the world will look like in 2030
Singing
Learning how to play the accordion
Making peace with squirrels (who share in the garden harvest)

Gardening, cooking from the garden, imagining where public art and social change intersect, jumping on the bicycle, taking the slow lane, enjoying the show.

Laugh easily, passionate about ideas, playful.

How to be a better ancestor...
and how cool it would be if compost toilets
were as American as apple pie.

Howling at the moon?
No Friday is typical...could be out to dinner with friends, seeing a film, or at home after a long day and happy to be taking a bath.

Okay....
I sang with ABBA when I was ten year's old.
True!

you'd like to meet for coffee or a walk, and enjoy sharing a conversation.
