| Introduction | I originally went to college to become a teacher. After graduating I decided it wasn't for me so I got a job in a large chain bookstore. After 6 years of being a bookseller, I went back to college and became a librarian, which I've been since 2002. Who knows what's next... the world is full of adventures waiting to be experienced! |
| Interests | Seeing live music, watching the Home and Garden Channel, doing DYI crafts and home decorating projects inspired by HGTV, writing 100-word stories, hiking, visiting parks and beaches all-year-round, letterboxing, and of course... reading! |
| Favorite movies | Defending Your Life, Dave, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Garden State, Love Actually, Princess Bride, Contact, About a Boy, Once |
| Favorite music | Anything played on 90.7 WFUV Fordham University's Public Radio Station... indie, folk, singer-songwriter, or alternative music. |
| Favorite books | Too many to list... The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell, The Alienist by Caleb Carr, The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster, Whirligig by Paul Fleischman, anything by David Sedaris, and three books by Sharon Shinn: The Dream-Maker's Magic, The Safe-Keeper's Secret, and The Truth-Teller's Tale. There's so many more that I can't think of... I need to walk up and down the book stacks at work to remind me! |
