Family

My husband Andrew Cohen is an assistant professor of psychology at UMass-Amherst.

My daughter Adira was born the summer of 2001. She can talk up a storm if she's in the mood, and she loves math and animals.

The picture on the left is Adira with our new kitten (at the time) Tink, adopted from the Dakin animal shelter in December 2007. The picture on the right of Andrew and Adira was taken on the island of Capri, summer 2004. If you peek through the stone arch you can see a bit of emerald grotto down below.
