I am a former staff member and programmer/analyst at the University of Massachusetts and reside in the Pioneer Valley. As a dancer and mother I have been active in supporting education and particularly the performing arts in the regional schools and local community. Along with my daughter I am also active in an international social dance community: Lindy Hop , Swing, Latin, and Tango in particular.  I welcome your comments and submissions  to foster links in the community and improve the informational and educational content of this site.
