I am Kate, a small town girl originally from rural Vermont. After four years in Boston, I now live in the Bay Area of California. I love small furry animals, fruit (but especially berries), movies that make me cry, the colors purple and blue, Oxford shoes, anything Harry Potter, a good book, and watching television while curled up in bed on a cold night.
