My husband and I were married on July 24, 2004, at St. Andrew Greek Orthodox Church (official site) of South Bend, Indiana, by Fr. George Konstantopoulos.
One of my favorite authors is Frederica Mathewes-Green (official site).
I am interested in iconography: both in the writing and interpreting of icons.
