Faith Harris
Faith is a graduate student at the University of Illinois-Chicago studying English literature. She often wanders the Chicago streets, admiring the architecture far too much to pass for a native. Sometimes you might find her in a coffee shop or a park, staring off into the distance, when she should be doing her homework, and perhaps she is nostalgic for warm days on the colonnades, a cubano from Spencer’s Coffee, or the little house on High Street where she fell in love.
