Claire with Pop Tarts. It’s a Thing.<\/p><\/div>\n

A writer and editor by trade, Claire works at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach. When she’s not at her desk, she enjoys seeking out the thousands of fascinating animals that occupy the aquarium’s smaller exhibits.<\/p>\n

She took piano lessons throughout her childhood, sang in choirs in high school and college, and performed with an capella group at her alma mater, Mount Holyoke. Her hobbies include skiing, cooking, blogging, visiting all the wonderful museums Southern California has to offer, watching and over-analyzing movies, day-dreaming about international travel, and creating playlists for every mood on Spotify.<\/p>\n
