What I Do, Job-wise:  I work for a super-rad website in the Silicon Valley. Specifically, I wrangle a group of freelancers into using good grammar and shout a lot about reproductive rights at my poor, hapless coworkers.

What I Do, Fun-wise: I’m currently in training to be San Francisco’s slowest, saddest half-marathoner. I also write erotic poetry about stone fruit and eat more burritos than most people.

My Motto: “Just watched Casablanca. They could’ve just had a threesome and solved everything. People are dumb.”

My Anti-Motto: “Horses sweat, men perspire, and women glow.”

The First Movie Star I Ever Had A Crush On: Many bikini-clad female professional wrestlers; Leann Rimes

My “Celebs to Make out with” List: Benedict Cumberbatch, Retta, Jenny Lewis, Emma Stone, Nicki Minaj, Andrew Garfield, Jad Abumrad, Matt Smith, Donald Glover, Greta Salpeter, Mike Birbiglia

The Most Played Song On My iTunes: “Going to Port Washington,” The Mountain Goats

Last Book I Read Without Skimming Any Parts: Jitterbug Perfume, by Tom Robbins

My Most Worn Item of Clothing: Shiny silver moon boot high-tops from Buffalo Exchange

Beauty Products That I Hoard: Red Sephora lipstick that I am forever losing

I smell like:  Kale, deodorant, "Jezebel" by Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab, and mild anxiety

I Have Faked An Orgasm (Yes/No):  No, but I have pretended that a dude was Captain Kirk in order to get there.
