Three things people may not know about you.

  • I’m a musician! I have albums on iTunes and Spotify. The name of the band is The Betties. Look us up on Facebook!
  • I used to be pretty into politics. I came really close to running for legislature when I was 21.
  • I can play the heck out of a washboard! (I’m referring to it as a form of auxiliary percussion; no relationship to laundry.)
