Hi! I’m Naya, but my friends call me Mercury. I studied botany and marine biology and really, really, really love bugs. I’m a creative working on a middle grade book, and I also sculpt, paint, podcast, and collect oddities for my curio cabinet. I love cooking, arranging flowers, reading horror and mystery, and brewing my own coffee. I hike, collect board games, and believe life should be colorful, curious, and full of wonder.
