Autorenporträt
Caitlin Connors spent her formative years enduring the drudgery of East Coast winters. After earning degrees from both Villanova University and Johns Hopkins University, Caitlin relocated to the sunny Florida coast, where she now works in tech sales. Caitlin is a true creative who fuels her passion through writing, art curation, and interior design. Her favorite things include down comforters, oysters, small batch whiskey, and giving forehead kisses to her son and Shiba Inu. She is also a rescue scuba diver who makes a mean chicken parmigiana. This is Connors's first book.
