Introduction	I graduated from SUU in May 2007, just after Jake and I started dating. I moved to Salt Lake shortly after, where I got a job teaching 10th and 12th grade English at Riverton High School. Jake and I got married December 2007. We moved to Chicago for Jake to get his MBA at Kellogg. I substitute taught, supervised study hall, and did some private tutoring on the side. Jake graduated in June 2010, and we moved to New Jersey, where our little Joseph arrived in October 2010. Now we're in São Paulo, Brazil, where our daughter, Eleanor was born in December 2012. We'll be in Brazil until sometime in 2014. I'm an American ex-pat living in São Paulo, Brazil. I have two kids and a great husband.

You're in the grocery store with a broken cart. How will you ever be that hungry?

Not hard. I'm almost always that hungry.
