New Home!

Hi, family!

In case you haven't heard, I got a job! I'll be working at the Center for Housing Policy in Washington, DC as a research associate. Clearly I haven't started yet, but it sounds like one of my initial projects will be foreclosures -- just like my thesis. It seems like it's going to be a great fit.

The job, you might notice, requires a pretty big move. Good-bye, Chicago shopping weekends, hello Washington lobbying/prostesting trips??? In any case y'all should visit. My new apartment is at 230 Rhode Island Avenue NE (No. 211). I'm pretty excited to have an apartment -- with a bedroom! -- to myself again;it's a big step up in the world.

I'm headed out that way 24 January -- so soon! But feel free to start booking now for Spring Break trips, etc.
