In 2012, I graduated cum laude from Loyola University in Chicago, Illinois with a B.A. in creative writing and a B.A. in communication studies.

I graduated from Northern Illinois University in May 2015 with a Master’s degree in English lit. In 2019, I graduated from Drexel University with my MLIS (library and information science).

I currently work as an Adult Services Librarian in Illinois.

Some of my hobbies include reading voraciously, taking photos, playing video games, and spending time with my Basset Hound, Lulu.

Most of the time my stories start out as daydreams. I'll envision something in my mind before deciding, "Wow, that sounds like a good idea for a story. I should write that down before I lose it." Many ideas come to me when my mind is occupied with something else, while I'm in the shower, or while I'm dreaming. I really should start writing ideas down as soon as I wake up, but I'm usually still too groggy from sleep. I'm sure I've lost many more good ideas from sleep than I've ever remembered to put down on paper. (less)
