I lived in Japan from ages 2 to 5.

My best friend picked my name for me when I was 13.

I have one brother and one sister, and I’m the oldest out of all of us.

I am so highly allergic to kitties that I can only be in a room with one for a limited amount of time before my throat closes up, despite six years of allergy shots.

I’m an INFP.

An embarrassing amount of my paycheck ends up going towards coffee, the really sweet, syrupy kind of concoctions.

I’m 5’11, which you’d think is pretty tall, but my 14 year old brother is 6’5.

I was on competitive swim team for six years, but stopped because one summer I got a puppy and she needed more attention than swim team did.

My middle name is Gabriel.

My dog's name was almost Primrose, because of the owl book series with the tiny owl named Prim, but she ended up being Hazel because I wanted a nature name, and there were hazel trees at the shelter.

I'm autistic, but wasn't diagnosed up until last year.

I have an awful habit of breaking tea thermoses, so I now own a very resilient plastic one.
