About


Welcome to Here&Now, my repository of daily record for the routine & remarkable. Here&Now is a Nashville style blog that features my favorite fashions, style steals, lifestyle features and the occasional pug pictures! 

Currently, I reside in Nashville, TN with Doug the Pug, Scout the Pug & my wonderful husband. I earned my Masters in biomedical research from Vanderbilt University, and have now transitioned to teaching Middle School (7th grade) Science. Throughout it all, I have a passion for learning about fashion/style on the side (gotta burn that midnight oil!).

I love blogging about my journey to define my personal style, budget shopping, food, fashion finds, music & travel. I enjoy a good DIY, bloody Mary, long weekend trip with friends, cruising on my bike, & acting like a tourist in my own town.

AND I love hearing from you! Wanna chat? Ask questions? Schedule a guest post? Shoot me a fashion/style/closet question that has been bothering you?

Photography: I currently work with a number of creative photographers here in the Nashville area. Previously, I used a Canon Rebel T2i, 50 mm f/1.4 prime lens, tripod & remote control.

For more information, read about my tripod/remote control photography.

Photographers I have collaborated with (not all are still located in Nashville):
Zipporah Photography
Alyssa Torrech Photography & Videography
John Hillin Videography
Jessica Ranae
Kate Davis Photography
Catherine Truman Photography

  1. Love seeing another girl in the sciences still being a girly girl! I'm applying to med school while currently working in a pharmaceutical research lab so pretty clothes sometimes is the only "pretty" thing every day :)

  2. I'm a biotech/biomed girl too! I was a structural biology intern for a biotech company and now am looking for a real job. Colorado isn't looking promising for the job hunt tho!

    Recently discovered your blog on Lucky community. Will definitely be visiting!

    Senorita Jessica noticing the gaze of the man with Vespa scooter on the seaside promenade, referring to boldness flashes him the ankle lifting discreetly her skirt! <3
