Among some of the highlights of my career...
As former leader of the Rochester Minimalists for over four years, I encouraged others to explore our relationship with things, evaluate what brings value to our lives, reduce our environmental footprint and question consumerism with monthly meetings, panel discussions and community education.
A founding administrator of the Buy Nothing Beechwood/Homestead Heights/North Winton Village, I helped grow the group to nearly 1,000 members and created an online support community for the admins of Monroe County's 30-plus hyper-local, gift-based economies.
I appeared on Investigative Discovery's On the Case with Paula Zahn in 2011, on Investigative Discovery's Someone You Thought You Knew in 2018 and served as an Investigative Assistant in the 2006 true crime novel Betrayal in Blood by author Michael Benson.
