Hi,
I'm Aubre!
I am a mother of two and a first year MSW student. A few years ago, I traded the hustle of Brooklyn for a quieter life in upstate New York. I am a self proclaimed homebody, and a true hobbyist at heart. I also share my experience as an online MSW student in my forties and the joys of my ordinarily extraordinary life.
