About me

Gender Female
Industry Education
Occupation Teacher/Student
Location Moscow, Idaho, United States
Introduction Teach writing courses at WSU in Pullman, WA and work at UI in Moscow, ID. Love to laugh (especially at myself), learning to explore the town I live in (with my two pups in tow), and looking forward to figuring out what I want to do in the next 5, 10, 15 years.
Interests Reading, Kayaking, Whitewater Rafting, Volleyball, Rollerblading, Skeet Shooting, nearly anything with my dog, and I could keep going... At least, that's my list to sound exciting. Right now? I am interested in sleep and no more grading papers! LOL! I am actually ready for summer break...just like my students.
Favorite Movies Zoolander (just re-watched it again!), 12 Angry Men, To Kill a Mockingbird, McClintock (gotta love some John Wayne), Sneakers, Taken, Dodgeball, and my interests continue to vary...
Favorite Music Instrumental (classical, Piano Guys, Chris Botti, pretty much anything without words). Of course, when I want to sing along, I'm crushing on Missy Higgins, Brandi Carlisle, Kate Nash, Duffy, and Adele. Throw in some John Legend and Jack Johnson for good measure and, in my mind, you have a great playlist!
Favorite Books The Count of Monte Cristo, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Book Thief, The Road, The Alchemist, and, if I were I writer, I wished I could write like the author of "Eat, Pray, Love." Accessible - humorous - and honest. LOVE IT!

What did you dream when you ate a spider while sleeping?

Um, honestly. I rarely remember my dreams. I like to think that subconciously means I'm achieving all my goals and dreams. However, if this question did apply, it would probably symbolize the existential dichotomy found within my eternal search for freedom and security. Hey, you asked!
