Author: Alana Theriault

Alana Theriault is a disability benefits advocate who has been assisting people with cash and health benefits since 1995. For fun she cooks, reads, binge-watches sci-fi and procedural dramas, grows vegetables and flowers, and tinkers with electronic gadgets. She shares a home in Berkeley with her sweetheart Chuck and two demanding cats.
