Bookkeeper

Sophie (she/her) is originally from Wisconsin and spent several years exploring different parts of the country before deciding she liked the Midwest best and moved to Duluth. Sophie has been here about two years, during which time she adopted her cat, Toby, came into a number of thriving houseplants, and successfully raised two summers' worth of cherry tomatoes. Sophie has a passion for making (knitted things, sewn things, baked things, anything) and gets a lot of satisfaction from the tidiness of numbers.
