About

• Transplanted Oklahoman in Chicago for almost two decades.
• History/French BA from the University of Oklahoma.
• Former Chicago Public Schools Teacher/Librarian.
• Worked in France, South Korea, and Japan and traveled in 30+ other countries.
• Year round cyclist that enjoys a city ride as much as longer touring (Chicago-Mississippi River, Cleveland-Cincinnati, 7 days in the Kathmandu Valley).

Through cycling I combine so many of the things I love: history, geography, architecture, public art, beer, friends, and the wind in my ever decreasing hair.
