I am a voice over artist, writer and cultural historian. I produce the Traversecityist, a podcast about the culture in and around Traverse City, Michigan. My writing has been published by the Architecture, Culture and Spirituality Forum and the Historical Society of Michigan.
As a classically trained vocalist and pianist, with a background in education, history, business and public media, I am eternally curious.
I also talk with my hands a lot. My Sicilian grandmother would be proud.
