I live up here in the not-so-green part of the Pacific Northwest—wind, smoke, dry heat, and an ungodly amount of tea and propel. I’m married to the love of my life, and we have two amazing children, and three cats who think every flat surface belongs to them: Flapjack, Yoshi, and Pumpkin.

First blog post!

Hey everyone 👋
