A little bit about me

My mom has been babysitting kids besides me and my brother since as early as I can remember, and I've always loved helping her out! I go to Grinnell College and have yet to declare my major. I love Iowa City and am a big fan of arts and crafts and live theatre. I love to watch Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Legend of Korra, Miraculous Ladybug, and Spongebob, and I love Minecraft and Animal Crossing. I am also a beginner at DND. I am also semi-fluent in Spanish.
