I am the only Norwegian in Pico Rivera. I moved to LA in 2001/2002 to marry my husband, Adam. I will be graduating from CGU with a MA in Literature and Creative Writing this spring. I also teach high school English at Orange Lutheran. On my spare time, I play tennis with the Greater Whittier Tennis Club, I go to the Eastern Sierras with Adam to go flyfishing, I read books, I write, I watch Dharma and Greg, and cook/bake home-made food from scratch.

I have not published anything yet, but I am working on perfecting my writing. I prefer writing short stories and working on my novel, but CGU has exposed me to different genres -- which I believe is going to help me become a better writer in the end. This semester I am taking The Story Into Script class, and I've never felt so out of my element - fish out of water - but I think it's going to make me a better visual writer in the end.

I live in a little house in Pico with my husband, our doggies Balou and Ophie, and our kitty Trinity.
