Michelle wears a lot of hats including academic, local journalist, facilitator, book reviewer, and shopgirl. Her essays have popped up so far at GOOD, Fourth & Sycamore, and Roar, and one time she accidentally found herself on a radio show. She has always loved reading, so writing was a natural extension. Coincidentally, inventing cocktails, learning about Scotch, baking, yoga, and making friends with random dogs seem to also be natural extensions of writing.
