I was born on an Air Force base in South Dakota. I've lived in South Dakota, New York state, Montana, Arizona, and now Utah. I've known that I wanted to be an English major since junior high. My editing interest came to me during my ELang 223 class with Dr. Dallin Oaks.

I met Tracy Wulf playing ultimate frisbee when he abruptly tackled me. You could say he swept me off my feet. We were married in July in Mesa, Arizona. I'll graduate in December 2008, and my husband will probably graduate with his master's in Geology in a few years.
