About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to meet every last person on the planet. Yes, I'm serious.

ABOUT ME

i'm a photographer--i like it most of the time, except when i'm not getting any work. I try to find balance between the quiet time watching movies, cuddling with friends and shaking my booty on the dancefloor. yoga keeps me calm, traveling keeps me excited. I love hanging with little kids and i love wandering around cities that are new to me. i could sit and watch people and their nuances all day.
i have a really funny laugh--once i get goin' it turns into this maniacal cackle that my friends love--I'm a little embarassed by it.
i wish i could live on olives and chips and salsa, red wine and goat cheese.

PHILOSOPHY

laugh until your side splits.
