About Me
|
- I was raised in Southeast
Alaska in a small island community.
- I have fished commercially (Gulf
of Alaska) and worked in the seafood processing industry for about half
of my adult life.
- I like tie dye, lava lamps,
Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones, downtown Chicago and the art institute,
tiramisu and most seafood.
- I don't like cold weather,
rude drivers, waiting in line or sushi.
- I enjoy making pottery and
doing metal sculpture (thanks to the welding program here at AWC), and
water gardening.
- I like to read, particularly
about high altitude mountain climbing, whole brain learning, systems
thinking and anything by Tom Robbins.
- I have learned lessons from
my students. I think teaching in a community college is one of the best
jobs there is.
