Welcome to the Wilderness of My Brain

Hey there, and welcome. If you’ve stumbled into this little corner of the internet, you’re probably looking for a dose of real life with a dash of wit, a sprinkling of chaos, and maybe the occasional poetic detour. You’re in the right place.

I’m a proud parent of four—yes, four!—doing my best to survive the daily circus. I’m also juggling grad school (the less glamorous, more caffeinated side of things), writing, advocacy, and the endless, weird adventures my brain insists on having.

Here, you’ll find everything from study hacks for the neurodivergent to parenting tales (equal parts heartwarming and hilarious), casual book reviews, true crime rabbit holes, and the kind of policy talk that somehow sneaks in between spilled juice and school drop-offs. Expect LSAT prep confessions, movie night recaps, and the late-night thoughts my brain refuses to keep to itself. Looking ahead, I'll be diving into more personal stories about the grad school hustle, offering tips on balancing work, study, and family life, and launching a series on navigating life as a neurodivergent parent. Plus, I'll share my deep dives into the world of book club picks that challenge and inspire.

Advocacy is the thread running through this tapestry—sometimes loud, sometimes subtle, always real. I’ll share the latest in what’s changing (or not) for parents, students, kids, and anyone else caught in the crosshairs of policy and daily life.

So settle in for stories, snapshots, and the gentle, offbeat humor that makes everyday chaos just a little more survivable. It all belongs here—and so do you.

I will be posting regularly, so make sure to check back for more!
