I am an animal lover. I share my house with 1 dog (from Puerto Rico , a sato) and 1 cat.
I am a vegetarian.

I have traveled to over 25 countries. The best experiences were when friends arranged for me to meet their friends who live abroad. I appreciate the local perspective.

I am a life-long Chicagoan. I often tell stories in the Chicago area, and have been featured in StoryCollider, The Stoop, Fillet of Solo, and Storyclub in Chicago.

I love storytelling, photography, ferals cats, and rootbeer.
