About Me
Hobbies
I'm a live music lover and hobbyist pianist and cellist and try to play one of them at least once a day. I love to ride bicycles at inadvisably high speeds and at odd hours of the day, and I volunteer as a mechanic and educator at a bike cooperative here in Los Angeles. I also love to cook and have dinner parties and volunteer in community kitchens. My signature dish is mapo tofu, which I can make vegetarian, but not without protestation.
What’s something you wish everyone knew about MIS?
I wish more people, particularly those with chronic illnesses potentially related to IAQ hazards knew about our medically relevant inspection and Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS) specific programs, which can be extremely informative for people dealing with mold-related chronic illness and their clinical teams and care providers. Clients can then use our findings to inform remediation processes, which need to be much more strictly controlled where occupants with mold related illness are affected.
