Overview
About Me
I’m a PhD student at the university of Minnesota studying biological anthropology. I love playing and watching sports, reading, and exploring places I don’t know. I am on a hunt for the best food in the world.

Music, Movies, and Books
All music is great with me :) my favorite artists right now are Amine, Indigo Girls, and James Bay.
I don’t like scary movies but if there’s popcorn or a drink involved I can be persuaded. Hit me with Harry Potter or Studio Ghibli any day.
Harry Potter always, but I love creative nonfiction and some historical fiction and sci-fi. I haven’t met a book I didn’t like outside the classroom.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

What I Can Share with Hosts
Lots of random facts about primates - did you know the tamarin monkey is the only primate other than humans that successfully births triplets? And they birth twins about 80% of the time. Wild am I right?
