I'm a painter with a print and bookmarking background, and I'll be teaching at UT in the fall! I broke my ankle rock climbing in October, and I'm almost good as new. I'm back to top rope already, and I'll return to running, hiking, and bouldering as soon as I get the greenlight. In the meantime... only road trips for travel. ✌🏼
