Brief biography:
I am a poet whose work has been published in many literary journals as well as "The New York Times" and "Scientific American." I have given readings, lectures and workshops throughout the United States and in Germany. A collection of my poems, "Ekphrasis" was published in December 2023 (PreSSrappel NYC). In January 2024 I was inaugurated as the first Poet Laureate of the Town of Branford Ct. As an alumna, I was proud to serve as the first woman President of the Yale Club of New Haven and for two terms on the Board of Governors of the AYA. In co-operation with the Branford Public Works Department and the Branford Land Trust, I have designed a number of "pocket parks" throughout the town, including the "Triangle Park" in Pine Orchard.
