22 year-old recent college grad taking a gap year before pursuing an MA in counseling. Good coffee, pancakes, and humor are the keys to my heart. If I had it my way, my life would be centered around traveling, running, and seeing live music. It sort of already is.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Relayed from SF to LA with friends one weekend—we each ended up running ~50 miles and the experience was amazing.

I love to compare regional differences in dialect/accent and learn about people's backgrounds.

An excellent cup of coffee, baked goods of choice, and hopefully a few laughs.
