Mary Kate grew up in a small town, 13 miles north of Milwaukee, known as "the Quon." The Quon is known for preppy young women. Mary Kate, being a swag master, struggles with fitting in with the high class gals. Ostracized by society and aloof by choice, Mary Kate spends all her free time eating barbeque chips, drinking chocolate milk and taking selfies with her wonderful grandmother. Don’t worry, she’s the type of girl parents warn you about. PS: She takes sick pics (#photographer).
