About me

Industry Accounting
Location Madison, WI, United States
Introduction Well. I'm a momma and one of the owners of Happy Bambino. I have a 5yo girl who is pretty darn cool. I like to write when I have the time. I read too much though lately just light novels that help me escape life but also don't require me to really contemplate other people's lives either. I like good films. I am rarely without a camera. I am an Anishinaabekwe (Ojibwe woman) and was raised in Bad River in northern WI. I miss dancing at pow-wows but have enjoyed doing my girl's outfits; if she'd just quit growing, I could do one for myself and get back to dancing too! Ummm. I hate these little boxes where I have to fill crap out in. ;)
Interests Babies. (duh) Kids. Family. Community. People. Visiting. Music. Beading and pow-wows and dancing. Babywearing. Breastfeeding lactivism. Photography
