I am an environmental engineer, artist and music teacher.

I enjoy reading and writing on sustainable development, climate change, global warming, environmental legislation, piano history, the "renaissance mind", piano playing, ballet, painting and parenting.

Due to my involvement in such a broad spectrum of disciplines, i am often referred to as a "renaissance woman". Let's just say that I thoroughly enjoy using both sides of my mind.

Update:

It's been 14 months since I started hubpages, and 9 months since I have written a single hub. I have written 58 hubs to date and I have decided to start back writing.

When I decided to join hubpages, I had a twofold reason- I saw it as an opportunity to express myself and share the knowledge that I have; and I also saw it as an opportunity to make some extra cash. Well, after my 58th hub I received a few accolades, but was making $0.01 per day from hubpages. I decided to stop writing for a while, and to monitor the progress of the hubs that were already written. Today, I make about $0.75 a day off of those very hubs, and of course wish that I did not stop writing, because that number could have been much higher. 

Thanks for visiting my profile page, I hope you enjoy my hubs.
