I’m originally from North Carolina, but now live in Chicago and work in digital marketing analytics at a national nonprofit. The thoughts here are my own.

I am fascinated by people, the way they think and make decisions. I enjoy roller coasters, traveling, dark chocolate, dancing, singing, improv, playing guitar and having intense debates/conversations about any and every thing.  I think I have a pretty decent start to adulthood, but I’m still working on smoothing out the kinks (I guess we all are, huh?).  Let me know what you think, what you’d like to see up here.
