General — Site Info

I designed this website myself using the Squarespace platform and the Rally template. I had zero experience with website design when I first began, and the first days were tough – really tough. Initially, the free videos that people posted on YouTube, with step by step demonstrations, helped me more than any of the Squarespace tutorials. I was grateful for the ordinary people who took the time to give freely of their expertise.

Since my initial learning curve, I have been satisfied with Squarespace. However, there are some basic things that the Squarespace platform does not support. Sometimes I find a solution that circumvents the issue, and sometimes not. Squarespace would be truly amazing if they fixed some of their basic limitations.

Website Dedication

This website is dedicated to my parents, Stan and Ellie.

We all have inherited ancestral legacies of trauma and abuse to one degree or another. But we also inherit much of positive benefit as well. Sometimes it may be harder to recognize all the good we have received, because those qualities have been more quietly ingrained in us. They don't jump out and clamor for attention, in the way that troublesome traits do.

The unconventional life that I live, looks very different from that of my parents. On the surface we have little in common. It appears as though I walked away from their religion, and all that is personally meaningful to them.
