More About Amelia

I live in West Philadelphia (on Lenni-Lenape land) with my family, our elderly German Shepherd mutt, Watson, and our two rats, Simone and Suni (yes, acquired during the 2024 Summer Olympics). 

When I'm not working, I enjoy post-apocalyptic fiction, painting, hiking and making music. I was a founding member, and served for a decade as the President of the Board of Directors, of PhilHarmonia, a contemporary chamber choir. (I'm not singing this season, but check out this recently commissioned ode to Gritty!)

Depending on the season and my mood, I might be a diehard Minnesota Twins fan or a Phillies devotee. I'm originally from Grand Forks, North Dakota, on Očhéthi Šakówiŋ land. (See some crazy pictures from my sophomore year of high school here.)
