After looking at this view all day and the surrounding areas all weekend, the only thing making me want to go home is "home" itself. Too often, a simple life is taken for granted. Now to simplify my own where I can.

I don’t do weddings. That being said, this is the 5th (ish) wedding I have taken. There is something really lovely about a small group of folks walking up to a spot in the open and two of them turning to each other; Their hands coming together and friends listening int...

My culture has always been so frightfully American. When I think of my childhood I think of fried chicken, corn on the cob and a side of mashed potatoes. I think of baseball and mowing the lawn. While none of this is a bad thing, I just never felt quite at home in my A...

I got my degree in theatre. I look back on that often and I have no regrets. I learned a lot from that degree and I worked hard for it. This is my friend Siobhan O'Loughlin. She graduated from the same program I did. She is an activist, an artist and one of the most be...

Identity is a funny thing. It is tricky; it leaps out grasp and hides from view at times. Mine is ever flowing and expanding. I learn new things about myself daily which is both an exciting adventure and also frustrating. So "work in progress" it is.
