Cathryn is a native New Yorker but currently lives in the Middle East with her husband and two children. She often can be found in the corner of one of Amman's many coffee shops with her laptop. When her head isn't in a book or she isn't writing, Cathryn enjoys building enormous structures out of Magna-tiles with her kids. She loves swimming in the Atlantic Ocean, floating in the Dead Sea, and traveling during non-pandemic times.
