Biography
I’m a salty bitch and recovering baby addict who writes about parenting, pregnancy and pop culture. Memoir, personal essay, and creative nonfiction are my specialties.

But I didn’t have to wipe anybody’s, thank god. It was winter in Seattle, which meant ice storms. Inadvisably, I’d taken a gig downtown — all the way down near First Hill — caring for a woman with early-stage dementia.
