i'm very open to brainstorming! she's 36, a native, and one of four girls. her family owns kovalsky's cafe which is sort of a bar harbor staple (it serves both eastern european food and american food) and her older sister and two cousins recently took over. she left the area for school in new jersey and then moved around quite a bit but came back about five years ago after her then-boyfriend jumped ship and left her as a single parent. she works as journalist for the local news and covers crime stories. she can be very blunt at times (not in a mean way but she doesn't like to sugarcoat things), often questions things or wants more information, and is a very modern single mom who is trying to balance work, motherhood, and play.
