About Me | I've had three careers: psychotherapist, organizational development consultant, director of an event production company, and a full life of service, which is most of what I care about after my family - women's health, LGBT rights, schools for girls in Pakistan, water supplies in Africa, women's right to choose, civil liberties, and social justice.

Some days, that's all I can do. I retired from my event production business one year ago, and I now spend my time writing short fiction, hikin...(read more) |
