Writer.  Yoga Instructor.  Actor. 
Teaching Artist.

Also wife, and mother of rascally young people, who are now, mysteriously, legal adults.

At the heart of all my work — the common thread that ties it together — is a relationship that changed everything for me. 

(It's not my husband, though he’s a fine specimen). 

It's the relationship between body and imagination, physical life and creativity. Unlocking that connection changed the way I move and make stuff and feed my spirit... but I traveled a long, dusty, lonesome road to discover it. 

So now, in addition to keeping up my own artistic practices, I try to smooth the way for others.

​I developed Creative Life Yoga because I love gathering people – especially women and creatives of every kind – to move, breathe, sweat, explore new pathways to the imagination, connect with kindred spirits, and experience flow together.  I offer a wide variety of innovative interdisciplinary classes, programs, workshops, and gatherings to stretch and strengthen body and imagination and fire up your creative process.

I host Golden Hour, a quarterly arts salon. An intimate backyard gathering featuring developmental-stage work and performances, Golden Hour is not a “show" but an opportunity for artists to try things out among fellow creatives and avid supporters, in a setting that's warm, inviting, nurturing, and decidedly low-stakes, full of love and camaraderie. Some of our artists are seasoned professionals, some are sharing their work for the first time. Open to all ages, career stages, and art forms, Golden Hour is a haven for Los Angeles-based artists, a safe space for creative danger, a playful soiree focused on growing community around creativity. 

​I also provide distinctive writing and editing services –thoughtful, sophisticated storytelling for clients in a wide range of fields.

What else...?​

I'm a moderate health nut, immoderate talker, story junkie, and shameless shoe enthusiast, I love great coffee, passable wine, and all the cheeses everywhere; also, funny people, books on paper, large popcorns at small movies, Topanga Canyon at sunrise, and an ocean dip at sunset. I also spend a lot of time trying to sort out my very unruly hair.​​

In the summer of 2019, after 24 years in the Big Apple, my husband, Eric and I, with our kids, Hutch and Violet, and CJ, our beloved shabby-chic rescue mutt, made a bittersweet leap from New York to LA, moving from the charmed Chelsea brownstone where we'd lived since the dawn of time, to a little house at the foot of beautiful Topanga Canyon.
