The Bibliophile
Kerstyn has had a pretty unique office for most of her life: the library. Her experience there spans the gamut of curating reader advisories to an entire summer spent vacuuming the top of every book in her college’s library. Kerstyn is our go-to for book recommendations. She loves to keep her free time purposeful. You may find her in rehearsal for a new community play, canvassing for a local election, or at the craft store picking up supplies for her next art project—whether upcycling something, knitting a new hat, or trying out a cool new cross stitch. Her favorite way to spend an evening is either watching a bad horror movie or hosting a (super competitive) board game night.
We are each other’s harvest; we are each other’s business; we are each other’s magnitude and bond. Gwendolyn Brooks
