- Biography
Heather enjoys watching true crime shows, "The Great British Bake Off," YouTube videos by Bailey Sarian and Daz Black, and "Forged in Fire." She aspires to one day take up blacksmithing as a hobby. As an avid reader, she has found great comfort in audiobooks during grad school because they can be listened to anywhere and it has allowed her to continue devouring the written word. She is the mom of two humans (14 and 10) and two fur babies (Ranger [dog] and Katniss [cat]).
