I am a former New Yorker living in Madison, Wisconsin. I am a obsessive maker of mixed tapes and the best challah baker in town. I have worked for social change throughout my career and now teach some classes at University of Wisconsin while raising two kids and writing a book.

I am an avid storyteller and have told stories at Moth Storyslams, Grandslams and Main stage. I have also told a story at Madison's Listen To Your Mother and other local venues.

I contributed a story to 'Listen to your mother: what she said then, what we are saying now' and 'I am subject'.

I am currently working on a book (hopefully finishing soon) that is about Radio Clinic, the business my family has owned for 80 years. Here is a published excerpt of it: http://www.westsiderag.com/2014/04/05/uws-history-how-one-store-fought-to-survive-the-blackout-and-looting-of-77
