Enthusiasm is my name; passion is my game. Whether it be about books, baseball, Taylor Swift, or the Iowa State Cyclones, you can always catch me prepared to discuss the things I love — and there are a lot of them. I got the gift of gab from years of rewatching Gilmore Girls, and don’t hesitate to put it to use.

I was born in Central Iowa and attended Simpson College where I gained my proclivity for poetry, personality tests, and party planning under the “whispering maples.” On the weekends you can catch me exploring Des Moines with my friends, attending sporting events with my family, hiking with my family’s Australian Shepard, Percy, or curled up at home with a book.
