I'm lucky. 

I'm married to a man whose heart is too large for me to comprehend. We rescued a cat with cigarette ashes in her fur in November 2016, and now, we spoil her sweet again. I'm happy each day to call them my little family.

Through academics and writing, I have met many people and made many friends: professors that have nominated me for awards, a Wattpad author I idolized turned close friend, a writing group that came from my friendship with said friend, and more. They have shaped more than my bibliography; they have shaped me as a person.

Then, my family. My large, loving family. Their pride in me inspires me to work that much harder.

My hobbies are a long list I don't have enough time for these days between working and finishing up school. But when I can squeeze it in, I love cooking, baking, painting, and singing. I'm working towards a healthier lifestyle, working out regularly and trying to enjoy it. I think someday I will; I hope someday I will. 

I love a wide range of literature and composition, such as poetry (lyric or narrative), short fiction, essays, speeches, and novels. After transferring to the University of Cincinnati from Sinclair Community College, I grew interested in plays and scripts. They all have something to lend to the other, and I find that fluidity beautiful.

When I'm not writing or working, I'm either hunched over homework, binge-reading a new book, spending time with loved ones, or buying another cute mug I (supposedly) do not need.

And well, that's me in a nutshell.
