About Me I'm a student getting my masters in family therapy, and a coordinator of an urban afterschool program for elementary kiddos. I love to read, and cook, and plant things, and play disc golf, and bike, and all outdoors activities. I geek out on science fiction/fantasy and I'm trying to turn my 3 little nephews into feminists.
