I'm a lifelong New Yorker. I grew up in the Finger Lakes region of western NY and went to college and graduate school in NYC. I love to travel worldwide, but lately I've been drawn to learning, knowing and appreciating the beauty of my surroundings. I fell in love with the Catskills region on long weekend drives, and knew it would eventually become my home. I am excited to share all that makes this place special. Cheers!
