I am a Washington, DC native, and among the 15% of Wikipedia editors who are women. I'm an active member of WikiProject Women in Religion. Working with our members from Indiana University Indianapolis, Tulane, and Yale, our WikiProject has presented on feminist Wikipedia editing at the American Academy of Religion conference, the Yale Divinity School and library, and at WikiConference North America 2025 in New York. My women's biographies are inspired by the WikiProject Women in Red, and tagged with it. I live in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, DC, work at a major university, and attend mass at a nuns' monastery that was founded in 1795. Author of three books, co-editor of three more (two with a Jesuit), and facilitator of others' writing.

My father was 100% Italian (they were quite a couple), and his father was a tailor in Philadelphia.
