Hailey Waitt originally hails from the wide-open plains of Dakota Dunes, South Dakota. She earned her BA from the University of Southern California, where she studied both history and psychology in an unflagging effort to understand what makes people tick. When she’s not reading, reading, or reading, she’s wearing out her passport pages in search of inspiration and the perfect cup of coffee. Hailey currently resides in San Diego, California.


Much Love.
