A self proclaimed daydreaming extraordinaire and an extremely amateur historian of music.

I’m also a writer (kinda, here and there) who laughs a lot. Like…a lot.
I’m about to sign up for a “26 in ‘26” reading challenge and I’m oddly nervous.

Imagine not having a place to shower.

Then a truck pulls up and says, you can today. For my birthday, help me raise $5,000 so we can keep bringing free showers and dignity to people in NJ. gofund.me/0b71593db
