About Me

Hi there! I'm a grad student originally hailing from Boston, MA. Currently living in Virginia and getting my PhD. I love to read (a lot), hike, craft, run, and bake.

I usually send within a day of receiving my partner assignment. If you have not received something from me, please reach out and I will resend immediately!
