About Me

CURRENT MISSION

embrace the process

ABOUT ME

my dream (and rather lofty ambition) is to travel to and experience every country in the world. and along with that, i hope to learn as many languages as possible. i am 27 years old, have two older brothers, and am working as an actress, writer, and production manager in LA. i really enjoy meeting new people and sharing stories/long talks and meals/memories. adventures and new experiences are of particular interest to me, along with film making, black and white photography, dandelions, making art and music, dogs, and dancing. my family and friends are very important to me. i love to read and can spend way too long in a bookstore or library.

PHILOSOPHY

to recognize the beauty and perfection of every moment.

music: folk, rock, oldies, and the spontaneous kind with pots and pans and complete abandon.

books:
Any murakami. Also, a tree grows in brooklyn, even cowgirls get the blues, time traveler's wife, white teeth, red tent, the fountainhead, ender's game, a wrinkle in time... all vonnegut and sedaris.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
