"You want to know the secret of the world? It's this:save it and it'll repay you, every second of every day." — Warren Ellis, Planetary
I grew up in Southern Michigan, moved to Mississippi for graduate school, and then taught three years in Fargo, North Dakota (Fun Fact: the infamous wood chipper from the movie is in the city visitor's center) before moving here to Elko and starting at Great Basin College. I studied journalism, science and elementary education as an undergrad, and my later degrees are all in English with emphases in Creative Writing. I'm also interested in critical theory, science fiction, film, graphic novels, pop culture and random things that catch my interest for whatever reason.
