I have been a Nurse Practitioner for fifteen years, doing primary care for HIV/AIDS clients at Harborview's Madison Clinic for the past twelve years. Recently I transferred to the ACTU to work with Dr. Christina Marra on studies of HIV-related neurological changes.

In my free time I can be found going quietly into old age on my Harley-Davidson low rider or wrestling my knitting away from my cats. I love the wind, looking down a long stretch of railroad track, and wandering and wondering. My favorite songs are "The Wayward Wind" and "They Call the Wind Mariah."
