CURRENT MISSION

take advantage of these travel benefits!

ABOUT ME

Born and raised in San Diego, California. As soon as I graduated from UC Santa Cruz in December, 2010 I applied for a job as a flight attendant based in Dubai which is what I currently do. I've always liked throwing myself into situations just outside of my comfort zone, so living in the Middle East, serving food on airplanes, and having layovers all over the world suits me pretty well! ...even though I really miss my family and friends in California. Currently planning my next move while simultaneously enjoying my layovers and taking advantage of my travel benefits.

PHILOSOPHY

Swimming naked in phosphorescent water with old friends and new friends off of a small island in the Caribbean Sea

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to surf, kayak, and skateboard if you want! And I still remember how to make friendship bracelets. I can also answer all the questions you have about the roles of a flight attendant and what it's like living in the Middle East.

I would love to learn to be a good cook!
