‘The untitled college is ending 300 word project’
Inspiration is like Miralax–it takes hours to kick in. By the time I’ve thought of something to write, I’m at my part-time job and we’re out of toilet paper. I go to the storage closet and restock the toilet paper with just enough time to write down the Miralax joke in my notes app I’m…
The Power of Femininity (April 2022)
Picture this: you’re a 20-something college grad. Today, you have a meeting that could potentially gain you a promotion in your company.

“Art Is Not Optional”
A conversation with The Art of the Brick artist Nathan Sawaya Most of us can relate to the exhaustion and stress of the work week. We sit in traffic, agonize over deadlines, and mobile order at Starbucks (all day long). When work life becomes too much to bear we turn to our passions. Cooking, writing,…
Alex Boch on Rock & Roll Drive In and inspiration through music
Most can agree that nothing beats live music. As we stand in the crowd, our heart beats faster in anticipation of our favorite band taking the stage. Once the music starts we are transfixed, our pulse steadies to the beat of the bass and we can physically feel every note of the song. The out…

Squeeze Dating App (July 2022)
Online dating can be exhausting. Dating apps are downloaded just to be deleted and re-downloaded again.

The year writing healed me aka where to next?
Two years ago, my life felt like the last 30 minutes of Titanic. I was a young woman, navigating a new place. My luxury cruise was a college experience miles away from home. Like young Kate Winslet, I was promised a fabulous, new life. Neither of us expected to be thrown off course into freezing…
Hell is a Sake Bomb: a short, true story
I simply adore crab rangoon. The Chinese food equivalent of chips & dip. I could eat my weight in Chinese food as a child. But crab rangoon was always my favorite. Three weeks ago, my friends Chloe, Eva, and I had a craving for all things crab rangoon related. We decided on a Chinese food…
