About Me

I was born and raised on a small island off the coast of Savannah, Georgia. After graduating high school, I lived in Athens for nearly a decade as I attended both college and graduate school at the University of Georgia. I majored in English and French Literature and loved every minute of my education, and I am grateful to this day for the mind-expanding and life-affirming nature of what I learned and was exposed to. As a writer, I seek to dig out and bring to light moments of our daily lives that are worthy of taking notice—whether it’s a headline, an artist profile, a blog post, a Facebook caption, or a humorous take on internet trends.

Another huge passion in life has always been music, and in college I was first a disc jockey and later programming director at WUOG 90.5. In Atlanta, I spent four years on the board of directors of Girls Rock Camp Atlanta, a week-long summer camp where girls pick up guitars and drumsticks and form a band.

Some of my interests:
-Culinary history. Lately, I’m on a spice kick, and I don’t really enjoy new stuff unless it’s scaldingly spicy.
-Trying to read all of the Hugo Award-winning science fiction novels.
-Trivia. I have a weird knack for remembering wars, presidents, ʼ80’s songs, and other bits of useless information.
-All things French. So much so that I had to enact a moratorium on pictures of the Eiffel Tower for birthdays/Christmas/just because from my friends and family.
-Star Wars. Seriously, my knowledge of Star Wars has been known to scare 13-year-old boy nerds.
-My delightfully skittish, green-eyed beauty of a gray cat, Goose.
-Collecting guitars.
-Growing corn!
-Meme theory.
-All things TikTok. (Seriously, it’s so creative and funny, y’all.)
