| Location | Austin, Texas |
| Introduction | I was born in Maine and raised in Massachusetts, which has given me a life long appreciation for lobster, the Red Sox and inclement weather. An only child until age 17, I grew up singing Aerosmith to myself in the mirror and publishing my own newspapers instead of doing math homework. I'm still not sure how I ended up putting down roots in Austin, but I'm sure glad to be here. |
