So I won Lollapuzzoola #lpz15 , the tourney that welcomed me into the crossword community in 2017. Absolutely unreal set of puzzles, capped off by a hella rewarding championship grid from my friend alexandra ladee. Endless thanks to Brian Cimmet and all the folks who made the day great.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the guy who once responded to a meek, shot-in-the-dark email … and *actually* showed up to my gross UVA apartment, with a 6-pack of Corona (god-tier), to chitchat about our love of puzzles for hours.

The rest is history.
Legend ❤️
