Von Thompson is a wife, mother, poet and actress. She holds an MFA from the Solstice MFA at Pine Manor College and a BA in English from the University of Puget Sound. She lives in the beautiful Sky Valley in Western Washington with her two boys and the Tribulation of Tabbies, and is also, at times, an sales office manager. These threads weave together in her very personal style of poetry, which focuses on the experiences and feelings that tie lives together. Von co-curates the Duvall Poetry Open Mic and is a past member of the Board of Directors of the Redmond Association of Spokenword. Von also has extensive experience in operational support, sales, and marketing, particularly with online vendors. She has worked in the automotive aftermarket and ecommerce vendor support for two decades.
