CURRENT MISSION

To do what I love most and see where it takes me.

ABOUT ME

I moved to Chicago in May and am loving exploring my new city.

I'm a down-to-earth, creative, silly person. I can be shy but will open up more once I get to know you. Or I'll be super friendly right away. 😜

PHILOSOPHY

Create, be, move and be kind.
