Kelsey Thaves

I have a deep interest in film and television that borders on obsessive necessity, and I observe culture as a hobby. In my free time I love writing, listening to talk radio and appreciating my Minnesota home.

I enjoy communicating with new and different people. My interests include film, television, food, art, exercise, and Netflix.
