No bio available

My passion is ...

Lots of things. Working with elderly. Eating good food. Running. Spending time with friends and family. Laughing at the little things in life.

I know too much about ...

Celebrity gossip.

My parents always told me ...

Everything in moderation.

My favorite memory ...

I love running into old friends when I least expect to.

Why I write ...

It clears my head. To memorialize things, people, events that are important to me. To share myself with others.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

Reading: Mountains Beyond Mountains. Watching: 30 Rock. Listening to: Andrew Bird.

My first job ...

Caldor. If you're not familiar with Caldor, it's essentially K-Mart with worse lighting, if that's possible.

My best moment ...

My inspiration ...

It varies. Sometimes it's something obvious like a story about a parapalegic finishing a marathon, but other times inspiration comes in a satisfying bowl of cereal.
