I'm a grad student, and a writer who loves music and puns. Sometimes I'm overusing my brain during a 14 hour work/school day, and sometimes I am eating a burrito in my bed. Other times I am trying to go to as many shows as possible or writing YA sci-fi. Seriously though, I love both verbal and visual puns. Send me puns.

I've worked in Boston for a few years, before that I went to undergrad in DC so I've got a bit of a political bend. Ask me about what I've studied/ am studying, it is romantic and I will like you

Lil' Mermaid is my rap name

I like to read essays, especially by David Foster Wallace. I read a lot of books about metaphysics for school, and a lot of dystopian fiction for pleasure.

I'm really into TV shows/ movies about campaign life & political policy, which is why I keep re-watching The West Wing and Battleground. Also 30 Rock

Recently I have been playing the following: Pallbearer, Grimes, Swearin', Grizzly Bear, Swans, Purity Ring, CHRVCHES, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Tame Impala, Dirty Projectors, old school Magnetic Fields, Modest Mouse and Les Savy Fav
I am all about 90's hip hop, so holler if you love Jedi Mind Tricks and UGK. Noise/ math/ certain types of metal are also my jam. Also Prince always.
If you put a Sam Cooke record on I will instantly become pregnant, so use that information carefully.
