Cutest Tater Tot We've Seen

Jeanie's roommate, social media manager and all-around partner in crime is her 7-year-old English bulldog Tater Tot. His biggest and only task as social media manager is making appearances in Jeanie's Instagram posts from time to time, but he's just so good at it.

Organized Chaos

Take one brief look at Jeanie's apartment and one thing is for sure: She is a collector. However, what differentiates Jeanie from many other collectors (AKA hoarders), is her keen eye for detail and ability to bring order to chaos.

A True Collector

There's no end to what Jeanie will collect. Scattered throughout her space are little organized groups of assorted tchotchkes and trinkets. "I am not capable of just admiring one thing, I have to suddenly make it a collection," notes Jeanie in regard to her vast assortment of oddities.
