Misty is short for Mistelyn, which is a name my parents made up. Isn’t that so creative?

As a child growing up in the poultry capital of the world, I read the dictionary for fun and dreamt of becoming a ballerina.

As a vegetarian adult with bad knees, I know plenty of words—and I use them to write ads.

My experience ranges from travel and tourism to beauty and beyond, which you can learn more about by reading my resume.

Things I’m good at:

Writing (duh).

Real Housewives trivia.

Sewing my own clothes.

Playing the sidelines in a mosh pit.

Being chronically online.

Things I’m less good at:

Making websites.

Sports.

Drinking enough water.
