About Me

About Me

I’m a Peace Corps Volunteer in Burkina Faso, West Africa. I love being here, speaking French and Dioula, acting ridiculous and working in community health. I don’t love requiring to stay in the closet in village when I’m so excited to come out in general/to Americans. To cope, I binge on Autostraddle when I have internet.
