Writer. Reader. Researcher.

Hi, I’m Alli! I am a professor, author, academic advisor, Ph.D. student researcher, mama of 2 under 3, multi-genre book-nerd, Virgo, Ravenclaw, INFJ. I’ve been through a lot of shit, and I’ve learned a lot in the cycles of healing. I love coffee, carbs, and vulnerability. When I’m not at the university or chasing around my Deaf toddler holding my one-year-old’s hands as she learns to walk, you can find me wandering the aisles of Barnes-N-Noble, learning sign language, or curled up with my Kindle. I am the most me in our cozy small-town home with my kids, my college-sweetheart husband, and our potato of a rescue pup, Beau.

I’m so grateful you’re here! Please check out anything that interests you and contact me if you’d like to connect. Cheers!
