About me

Gender Female
Industry Student
Location Los Angeles, United States
Introduction Born and raised in Los Angeles, I am naturally obsessed with film, kitsch, and popular culture. Currently, I'm working in special collections at an academic library on a digital project dealing with Los Angeles history and trying to ignore the fact that I start grad school in January.
Interests "Keeping my body fit, keeping my mind alert, and keeping the landlord appeased, that's a full time job." (that's also a quote from a movie...do you know which? It was Ninotchka with Greta Garbo)
