: About Me

I am a technical writer with a background in English and social sciences. Being paid to write gives me such a great feeling, like coming home. Most of my work is contract or freelance, which I love because it allows me to set my own pace.

My passion is ...

my family. And probably vocabulary.

I know too much about ...

the plotlines of nerdy television shows.

My parents always told me ...

if it's worth doing, it's worth doing well.

My childhood ambition ...

was to be a private detective.

My favorite memory ...

is holding my firstborn for the first time.

Why I write ...

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

I'm re-reading 1984, watching Lost, and listening to Neko Case.

was washing my family's dishes.

My best moment ...

was realizing how few of the things we think we need are actually necessary.

My inspiration ...

is my mother.
