What's the most important thing you've learned at NBSS?
The way that deep intelligence comes in all forms, through the hands, through the objects, through the histories, through the extended community of what we do.
What is your favorite NBSS experience?
Walking the shops, seeing people at work, and hearing their enthusiasms for what they are learning or teaching.
What’s the strangest/most interesting job you've ever had?
I was an open water lifeguard in Vermont and a deep water aerobics teacher at a downtown YWCA—what a crowd!
Hometown: Wooster, OH
What's your dream job or project?
To be a dahlia farmer on a donkey refuge.
What's your favorite place to be?
These days, in the garden, hearing the sounds of my sweetheart working in her studio and our puppy playing in the yard.
