Hi,I'm an islander and wanderer who recently moved and settled in the continent.I spend my days doing my best to raise a spirited toddler, forging a new professional path as a social worker by day, and writing my second novel at night.Also, I try to remember and cultivate the things I love:reading books, yoga and meditation, hiking, swimming, trying to learn the ukulele and singing along badly, poetry, baking, sunsets and star gazing, watching standup comedy... I'm cheerful and often childlike, which is probably the counterpart to my badass resilience and dark sense of humor.
