About the Author

Reilly Nearpass was born and raised in Willow Grove, a small town outside of Philadelphia.

Reilly has a bachelor's degree in early childhood education and a goal to eventually earn a master's in child psychology and counseling. In her free time, she likes to read and run. She has recently acquired an interest in playing guitar, kickboxing and cycling. She also enjoys baking, hiking, and spending time in nature. Her favorite thing, however, is spending time with friends and family.
