FUN FACTS:
I think picture books are magical. I love the way stories make us wonder about our world and offer insights into the beautiful diversity of the human experience.
I have a French Bulldog named Hugo. He is an adorable troublemaker.
I have been to six of the seven continents. Antarctica is the dream destination.
I collect succulents, enamel pins, and flair pens.
I love coffee and finding new cafes in my neighborhood.
I am happiest spending time outside with my family, Eric (my partner), Henry (our 8-year-old son), and Hugo (the naughty puppy).
