Welcome! I'm a writer and grad student based in Boston. I tell stories about bodies, minds, and popular culture.
These days, I'm especially interested in vision. Doctors have described me as "a pleasant 24-year-old right-handed woman with a longstanding diagnosis of visual snow syndrome and headaches related to binocular convergence issues." See the world through my eyes through my vision simulator.
