I live in Ottawa, Canada, but am a U.S. citizen. I grew up outside of Denver, CO and studied at the University of Denver; after a pause to get my head together I moved to Boston, MA to attend Harvard University Graduate School of Education, and then remained four more years before moving to Ottawa. While in Boston I became interested in running, because I felt my body was that of an older man than me, and because I was not suicidal enough to take up cycling in Boston traffic. About a year after moving to Ottawa I joined Ottawa Frontrunners, and have since discovered the great resource that is GLBT sport clubs. I used to be completely intimidated to be around athletes of any kind, particularly straight jock types, and have found an ability to grow within these environments. Now running and swimming are two of my major athletic and social venues in Ottawa. Aside from this, I love to cook, but hate to clean.
