I am a happily introverted person who likes city life because I like arts and culture and engaging with people who are different from me. I like to garden, read, write, crossword puzzles, travel, needlework. I have a husband, daughter in college, and a cat and dog. My family and I have a hard time sitting still on vacation - we like to visit new cities and use public transit to get around. We also care about social justice and enjoy volunteering in our community. I hope to put good into the world and I'm pretty accepting and can find common ground with all kinds of people.
