I have two loves - baseball and biking - and the Twin Cities have absolutely spoiled me on both. On a somewhat connected note, I currently have 31 ½ real teeth! Can you guess which one is half fake? :D

Crossword puzzles are my true love. I can complete up to a Friday New York Times puzzle but have never (yet!) finished a Saturday puzzle, which is the hardest.

I’ve been a vegetarian since the day I was born. I’ve never eaten a piece of meat in my life.

Best part about being a Tour Guide Coordinator During my first week of work as a coordinator, I had two first-year students come up to me and tell me that I had been their tour guide when they visited Mac. They also said that they also wanted to become tour guides here because of that. It was one of the most rewarding moments I’ve had here at Mac.
