Do you have any pets?
I have a small dog that I rescued from the Denver Animal Shelter! I fostered his mom, him, and his 4 brothers since they were 4 days old and failed as a foster parent, adopting Charlie when he turned 8 weeks old. He looks like a mix between a Maltese and Schnauzer, but all of his brothers looked completely different from each other.
Where did you grow up?
A town in southern New Hampshire called Londonderry. It’s a classic New England small town, but special because most of the town was built within an apple orchard.
If you could pick up a new skill in an instant, what would it be?
My practical answer is becoming more fluent in Spanish, but my impractical answer is glassblowing.
How do you spend your free time?
Outside chasing “Type 2” fun trail running, cycling, backpacking, or snowboarding. Brutal in the moment but once I get done, I think, “Wow, how lovely it was to feel so uncomfortable.” I also enjoy sewing my own clothes from thrifted fabric, live music, and watching Boston sports teams.
