Writer, podcaster, dog-lover. LGBTQ+, mental health & chronic illness advocate.
I write about living with chronic illnesses. I ask a lot of questions. I battle a lot of demons. I try to live life one day at a time. I usually fail. Lover of humor, music, film, tv, Broadway, carbs, anthropology, nature and literature. I’m passionate and quirky. I wear my heart on my sleeve — on the inside of my sleeve, just so you can’t see.
This is my adorable pooch Teddy, who was supposed to be a service dog. Turns out, he needs a service dog. Oh, well.
