I was born in Kentucky, spent my childhood in Florida, grew up in Chicago and now live in California. I’m pretty multi-cultural.
One day I hope to be a less positive version of Oprah, but right now I’m a reporter and journalist in Marin County, north of San Francisco. I was the editor of San Anselmo-Fairfax Patch, covering San Anselmo and Fairfax (duh), and before that I was the editor of a paper that covered the same area. Fancy! Different!
I used towrite for a variety of blogs, papers, and magazines in my free time, but then I didn’t have any free time. Now, all I do is write for a variety of blogs, papers and magazines, but it’s my full time and not my free time. I am a particular expert in pop culture as a reflection of societal trends, international economics (have to put that college major to some use), and brownies.
I used to race as a professional triathlete. Now, I just race when I feel like training. Maybe, sometime, I’ll get serious about being fast again.
You can read my blog, Almost as Good as a TV Show, to get to know me and stuff.
i believe you left out glenview… a fairly important part of your life
and VERY different from chicago
yeah, but “then we moved to chicago, then we moved to another place in chicago, then we moved to the suburbs” doesn’t really mesh well with my narrative. gosh.
yeah. The list of the seventeen places we moved before you were in 7th grade sort of slows down the story. But Maggie is right that Glenview is WAY different from Chicago.
