I've lived in Wisconsin all but one year of my life, which I spent as a baby in a near suburb of Chicago. I grew up in a small town called Holmen, about 20 minutes north of La Crosse, straddling the divide between rural and suburban. After high school, I was lucky enough to attend UW–Madison. Much like many people, my first year was rather rough—I thought I was going to major in astrophysics, and boy was I ever wrong. That spring, I took an intro anthropology class on the advice of my mother, and from there it's been, well, history.
Having just finishing my undergraduate degree, I'm currently looking for work in Madison as well as becoming more active in my community, working toward positive change, and hopefully getting some sleep.
