My Travel Schedule
Get to know Caitlin....
I grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and attended Kalamazoo College, a small private liberal arts college that shares lots of qualities with Hamline. I majored in English and have put my degree to work writing and editing in the higher education and nonprofit development worlds.
I enjoy plays and performances at the many theaters in the Twin Cities, and I’m involved with the Fringe Festival, the a huge non-juried theater and arts celebration in August. I’m active in causes that matter to me, and I volunteer whenever I have the time. I read The New Yorker cover to cover, but I’m also hopelessly hooked on celebrity tabloids.
Fun Facts
What is your motto/favorite quote?
“The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity.” --Dorothy Parker
What other job would you most like to have?
I’m a freelance writer when I have the time, and it’s always interesting to me—I’m lucky to do what I love. I'm working toward my Master's in Fine Arts in Hamline's Graduate School of Liberal Studies, so I'm always writing something!
Favorite Movies:
Rushmore, Mermaids, The House of Yes, anything by Alfred Hitchcock

The Dew Breaker by Edwidge Danticat; Birds of America by Lorrie Moore; Drown by Junot Diaz
