She loves learning how things work through reading, watching her creative friends’ projects, and doing things hands-on, sometimes writing about it for others. Professionally, she pursues good design and financial efforts to make projects (or processes) graceful, efficient, and sustainable—to ultimately conserve resources and expand green (or blue!) acreage anywhere in the world.
