My passion is helping make the world a place that's humane, compassionate, just and sustainable. I work for the Institute for Humane Education as their Web Content & Community Manager, and am also a Humane Educator. I recently founded Portland MOGO (Most Good) and am Vice-President of Northwest VEG in Portland, OR. I've been vegan since 1998 and vegetarian since 1989. I adore my husband (of nearly 23 years) and am grateful for all the blessings we've enjoyed. I live in a co-housing community and look forward to continuing my journey on the humane continuum. |
