About Me

Kelly Panciera lives in Portland, Oregon, a mecca of both sustainable living and music. By day, she does communications-related work on recycling, waste prevention, product stewardship, and green purchasing issues at Green Spectrum, a consulting firm she co-founded.

After hours you’ll likely find her enjoying a show at one of Portland’s many fine music venues or at home listening to, playing, or reading about music.

Kelly is a lifelong scholar of the gospel according to John, Paul, George, and Ringo and can’t decide whether the release of The Beatles: Rock Band has added or detracted from her quality of life. She’s also a proofreading and editing enthusiast, and despises writing in the third person.
