As a strong believer that communities of artists can effect real change in the world, she is also your friendly, neighborhood Writers for Hope auctioneer. When not auctioneering, she enjoys living in the snowy Northeast with two benevolent canine overlords, Medusa and Miss Marple, and a pair of emotionally fraught turtles.
