Where are you from?
I am from Sacramento, California.
Do you have a favorite place in Tacoma?
My favorite place in Tacoma is anywhere there is a farmers market!
Name a class at Puget Sound you are interested in, but haven’t taken.
I would have loved to take Never-Never Land, it seems like such a unique approach to understanding the legality of being a minor, as well as how the American legal system treats young people.
What is a book that has been influential for you?
The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down by Anne Fadiman. I read this book in a religion class at Puget Sound my senior year and was blown away at how beautifully articulated this complex story was. I still think about this book a lot.
