I grew up in a small town in southeastern Pennsylvania where I learned the importance of getting away, only to find home waiting for me right where I left it.  I ran as far as Scotland, earning both a Bachelor’s in anthropology and Master’s in journalism from The University of St. Andrews and the University of Stirling, respectively.  Upon returning home, I decided to make my way in New York, where I’m lucky enough to visit my family (and their wonderful, crazy dogs) whenever I like.  I take pride in my friends, the music I write, and the home I have made for myself and my giant gray cat, Elddansurin.
