What I do at Resolutions Northwest: I help coordinate the neighborhood mediation program, train, mentor and support volunteer mediators, and mediate difficult or complex cases.

Favorite spot in Portland to relax: Mt. Tabor, or on my bicycle seat

What famous person (living or dead) do you most identify with and why: John Coltrane. He was consistently pushing the edges (of his own skill and of what was musically acceptable). Sometimes it was glorious, sometimes it was unbearable. He sought the divine through his medium.

Live in: SE Portland

Grew up in St Louis, MO with a sister siblings

Fall, winter, spring or summer and why? Fall--colors, energy in the wind, reflection.

Jitterbug, disco, salsa or funky chicken and why Funk--raw, uncut, the bomb and because I have ants in my pants and I need to dance. Get up offa that thing, and dance until you feel better. Get up offa that thing, and try to relieve blood pressure.
