About Me — Brynn Mahnke
Freelance writer. Distance runner. Reader. Outdoors lover. Useless facts memorizer.
Hi! I’m Brynn. I’ve been writing for years, but just recently started putting my work into the world for others to see.
About Me
I’m a freelance writer based in the Midwest. I am married and have seven kids, and before you ask — yes, I know what causes that! Five of our kids are adopted through foster care. It’s been a bit of a crazy last decade or so!
My kids attend school two days a week and I home school them the other days. This blended model is perfect for our family after trying both public school and full-time homeschool.
I quit working outside the home when my husband and I started a real estate appraisal company before kids arrived on the scene. I work for the company a little less now, but still handle the books and taxes.
My prior jobs included internally investigating complaints for an insurance company, working as a paralegal, and working in a large company's tax department. All these jobs probably sound like a total snooze fest, but I loved them all! And they were all significantly easier than parenting. ;)
Right now, I’m also working on finishing up my Liberal Arts degree. I’ve attended college…
