Jamei Bauer

Jamei Bauer is a veterinary technician, educator, and poet. She fled her home state of Alabama at the age of 17 and has been proud to call New England her home ever since. She loves snow. She once, accidentally, killed a giraffe. The biggest reason people stop talking to Jamei at parties is that she tells disgusting stories about working in an animal hospital. The biggest reason people stop talking to Jamei at work is that she tells them she writes poetry. Much of her work deals with reconciling these worlds.
