Personal Information/family/hobbies/talents:

In my next life I want to be a carpenter, something I have learned to love while on an annual mission trip to Appalachia.  I enjoy puzzles and mystery novels – apparently problem solving is what I do for work and pleasure!  I live in an old California style bungalow with my cat, Kadiatu, in Hyattsville and visit my family (all in the Northeast) as often as possible
