ABOUT ME

I grew up in California (near San Francisco) and after graduating from UC Davis last year, I decided I wanted to take some time experiencing something different. I moved to Bayreuth, Germany in September 2012 to work as an Au Pair (eventually enrolled in the University too) and I love it! I'm also taking this time to also explore other parts of Europe.

PHILOSOPHY

Live this moment for this moment is your life

Don't worry, be happy.

There is fun to be done!
