About Me

About Me: The short version...

I like cats. And tea. And bugs. I also like drawing and writing and geeking out about nature.

The longer version...

I like cats and tea and geeking out about nature. After studying writing at Sarah Lawrence College, I left my home state of New York to move to the Midwest for grad school. I have a Master's degree in archaeology as well as a Master's in teaching and an English teaching license. I'm interested in how we express ourselves, both visually and in writing and I'm drawn to the intersection of the natural world and the supernatural (whether it exists or not). In addition, I do not believe that we have to "grow up". I could happily spend the summer days wandering about the yard and picking up bugs (and often do). I forever want to learn about new things.
