I am a conscious optimist. I recently gave up life in Philadelphia to return to my hometown where I am privileged to be working for an organization that is helping to aid in the preservation and interpretation of one of the National Trust's 11 Most Endangered Places in America (http://www.nationaltrust.org/11most/list.asp?i=154). I find it essential to continue to study and work on "remaining in the present." I am fascinated by the industrial history of the U.S. I think it is essential to use our global neighborhood to work together instead of against each other. I look forward to interacting with other Ode readers!
