About serc
I am a 38 year old feminist mother of one boy, Alexander and one girl, Julia. I have also just passed my nursing board exam, meaning that I am finally a Registered Nurse! I have been married to the coolest husband in the world for fourteen years. We also have a pet cat, Mizu.

I first went to college at St. Mary's in Southbend, IN; Notre Dame's sister school, and transferred to St. Olaf (in Northfield, MN, where I now live) after one miserable year there. I graduated from Olaf in 1994 with majors in biology and women's studies. I have worked in retail, as both a salesperson (Casual Corner and Victoria's Secret) and a bookseller, storytime worker, and Community Relations Coordinator at a Barnes and Noble. Before I became a SAHM and then went to nursing school, I worked at St. Olaf College in the Continuing Education department. At different points in my life I have wanted to be a professional dancer, a doctor, and a librarian... in fact, I even went to library school for a while for my Master's degree. I quit, as it was intensely boring and very expensive. My next major project will be to find my first nursing job. Finally!!!
