Think of the forever awkward Lindsay Tocik whenever you feel uneasy about yourself. If you have encountered an odd American visiting student climbing a tree, walking around barefoot, or speaking & gesturing to herself, it was probably Lindsay. She is from the small & sequestered island of Martha's Vineyard where she fell in love with nature before books. Lindsay learned about social justice before multiplication, hugs before handshakes, and the application of love before common sense. She attempts to understand the world through creating poetry & art, and the only thing she has grown certain of in life is the significance awaiting discovery in the cracks of all insignificant things.
