  • Running, Resting, & Feeling Content

    It’s time for some life updates—other than being tired and overworked. Life’s actually been pretty good. I’m back into training for a half marathon, which means I’m constantly in a state of hunger, but honestly I’m just happy to know my body can still run.

  • Pride & Pyre

    There’s a fine line when it comes to burning bridges. I would know—I’ve burned plenty, and rightfully burned back.
