About Me
A Raging Bibliophile
Bio
When I graduated from college with my B.A. in English, I had no idea what I wanted to pursue. Advertising? Non-profit work? Journalism? I moved back in with my family while I took time to decide, and in the meantime, took a job in a middle school library. I fell in love with the school culture, the students, and the opportunities I had to teach. Now I know that teaching is truly where I'm meant to be.
Interests
books, music, writing, running, oneology, cooking, guitar, New York City, travel, knitting, alpacas, and cheese-making
