magnetha

I'm a vinyl junkie, web geek, teacher, learner, greyhound rescuer, hockey fan, vegetarian, and recovering nonprofit executive director.

I was born in Montreal, Quebec and raised in various places across Ontario and Quebec. My dad was an explosives expert, so we moved around a lot. Wait, that came out all wrong…
