Hey, I’m Marin! 👋🏻

I know no one really wants to read a long about page packed with paragraph after paragraph, so here’s the quick version:

🐶 I live in Minnesota with my boyfriend and our three dogs: Murphy, Bella, and Gus—a Saint Bernard mix and two Chihuahua mixes!

👩🏻‍💻 I am a serial entrepreneur. I’ve always started businesses and had side hustles. As a kid, I had a leaf-raking business called Leaf It To Us.

📖 I read 100+ books per year (including short stories and graphic novels—yes, they count!) and especially love thrillers, romance, and speculative fiction.

🐟 I am a Pisces sun, which means I’m always dreaming up something new, and then my Aries moon and Capricorn rising force me to follow through. You’ll never catch me without a project.
