I'm currently writing my book on Inca irrigation and the meanings of water in Inca culture. I am also president of the League of Women Voters of Kent County and an active advocate for health care reform and comprehensive immigration reform. I am on the Planning Council to create a community health center in Kent County (FQHC) and a member of the Maryland Women's Coalition for Health Care Reform.
