about me

Hi!  I’m Leslie.  I’m 25, I live in Brooklyn, I work in Manhattan, and I write this blog.  [For more about the blog, click here.]

A little about me:

  • I like food.  Oh, that’s obvious?  Ok. Vegetables are my favorite food group.  Second place is a tie between summer fruit, wine, bread, and chocolate ice cream [in a cone, with sprinkles].
  • I work at a performing arts center as a grant writer.  I get paid to help make the arts happen.  It’s pretty cool.
  • I lived in Prague for a year after college, studied abroad twice, and am currently on a mission to explore the United States.  I hope I’ll keep traveling until I can’t stand on my own two feet. Even then, I hope someone will push my wheelchair through new turf.
  • I took 12 years of ballet, spent a year in film school, worked as a fashion stylist for another year, and have a degree in theater and writing.  I also thought calculus was fun, which is confusing.
  • Suburbia scares me.  I will never move out of a city.
  • I am very lucky to have an incredible family.  They are my very favorite people to spend time with.  It doesn’t hurt that our days together typically involve a lot of delicious food.
  • I think exercise is awesome.  My favorite form is power vinyasa yoga, and I also like to run when my knees aren’t cranky, which means not too often.  Generally, I just love to be active.
  • I am a much nicer person in the summer.  The beach is my happiest happy place.
  • I have no idea what I’m doing in life, but I’m having a hell of a good time figuring it out.
