MUST READS
Hi,
I'm Aubre!
I’m a mother of two pursuing a Master of Social Work (MSW). I traded the hustle of Brooklyn for a quiet life in upstate New York. As a self proclaimed homebody, I enjoy the solitary activities of writing, painting, cooking, crafting and rewatching an old show. I also enjoy sharing my journey as a mature student. I am all about finding joy in my ordinarily extraordinary life.
