I am an avid drinker of tea. My favorite font is Times New Roman, and my favorite number is seven. (No idea why, just a thing.)
I also love backpacks and fun ways to carry what you need to. I do not believe in purses. I am the proud owner of an Athlete pack from @AtlasPacks. I love stickers and dogs and hedgehogs. I am a firm believer that small wins matter. I love quotes, typewriters, poems, and I get lost in the depths of Pinterest each and every time I get logged in to the site. Every time, without fail.
