I am a sales rep for a book publisher. Books are my life, both professionally, academically, and personally. I own over 600 books (I know, that's nothing to some people) and the number keeps growing. In addition to books, I love food. Eating it. Making it. Critiquing it. Looking at pictures of it. Really, if food is involved, I'm there. Currently, my favorite food is a tie between Eggs Benedict and nachos. Yeah, I know.
I just finished grad school so now I am free to spend all my energy working. YAY!
I am so used to Twitter that I tend to write in short sentences. See my last two paragraphs.
Oh, there is so much more I could tell you about me, but why spoil it now.

I'm the Fundraising Coordinator for a multi-disciplinary arts festival in Maryland (born and raised though I went to college in Connecticut and graduate school in Alabama). Though I really enjoy just about every other art form, I LOVE (and can majorly geek out on) theatre. I grew up going to see plays and musicals, acting in school and community productions, and then went on to study theatre in college. When I was eight and people asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I said "be an actress" without any hesitation. After exploring all sides of the stage, I found myself working towards a career on the business side. I even have an MFA (Master of Fine Arts) in Theatre Management/Arts Administration from the University of Alabama/Alabama Shakespeare Festival.
I don't get to see much by way of theatre these days, but that doesn't stop me from keeping up with what's going on out there in the industry. I hope to remedy that situation in the next year or so.
