About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Mission sounds much to serious...perhaps to convince more people to read Maira Kalman.

ABOUT ME

Terrible at summarizing/ writing blurbs..But I'll try. I'm a bit silly and I love projects. I research and read for fun. Thrift stores and book stores always draw me in. I grew up on a cattle ranch, went to hippie schools growing up, and recently graduated from Whitman college. Currently I'm training to be a doula (which is a support person for women in labor).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Pick 60 pounds of blueberries with friends in an hour, road trip over the West for four months, sunrise from mt. Kenya, swim with a sea turtle...

Teach, Learn, Share

The cows are all out on the forest for summer grazing so the ranch is a bit quiet now. I also love cooking with people. (Don't worry you don't have to do ranch work to stay on the couch).
