As of now, I’m a 20-something engaged in the shuffling and shoving process that is finding your place in the world. I graduated from Miami University (the one in Ohio) with degrees in English Literature and Journalism, followed by six weeks at New York University’s Summer Publishing Institute. I grew up in Cincinnati, but now reside in a suburb of Detroit with my fiance.
As a self-identified Francophile, I’m a soccer fan and slightly snobby about it. I love to sit and read/write on rainy afternoons while listening to classical music. Foregoing a gym membership, I take out my aggression on the track with the Bath City Roller Girls. I also have a soft spot for: my kittens (Harper Lee and Mr. Bennet), 19th century British literature, hipster folk music, Gilmore Girls re-runs, literary criticism, Futurama, Stephen King, and my fiance. I may or may not mention these subjects on an annoyingly regular basis.
As for my day job, I am a Local Editor for Patch.com. Before that, I was a bookseller, intern, editor, library worker, and The Water Queen. Yes; for four summers in high school, I worked at a nursery watering flowers. Be jealous.
