About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Always learning

ABOUT ME

24 yrs old, gemini!

I am from Albuquerque, NM but my hometown is Roswell, NM. Go ahead, ask me if I've met any aliens. I'm one of the few that do not mind answering that question! haha

I graduated college in spring 2013 with a bachelor of fine arts in studio art.

I am artistic, creative, fun, somewhat reserved in certain situations.

I like...

Lipstick + rain + tea + clouds + makeup + fashion + 5d mk II + natural light + dusk + conversations + laughing + writing
+ listening + night time + braids + curls + delicateness + fierce + quirky + doodles + moon + holding hands + craft stores + styling + music + friends + travel + movies + empty parks + flowers + forest scents + breezy days + bodies of water + mountains + overcast + spontaneity.

I do have a short fuse when I'm tired and hungry. Other than that, I'm a peach.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to read both fiction and non-fiction. I prefer non-fiction because I find it hard to get into fictional stories if I do not like the narration or the characters. I really enjoy David Sedaris! Shel Silverstein. One of my favorite books is a graphic novel, Blankets. I love books on personality and behavior. I have to say I do enjoy astrology as well and really like to read about different signs and the personality traits that tend to go along with them.

I really love watching movies, though I haven't been to many in the theater lately because I've been trying to save money for my trip! I like movies almost across all genres. I'm not too fond of horror flicks or too many action movies. It really depends on the story. Some of my favorite movies include Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Goonies, Amelie, Coraline, The Fifth Element, El Orfanato, Bridesmaids, and many disney movies :3

I enjoy a lot of different genres of music. Lately though I have been listening to a lot of Foster the People, Arctic Monkeys, John Mayer, 1975, and Bibio.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a photographer and would love to share what I do with you! Any questions or discussions are welcome!

I took piano lessons for almost 10 years and know basic chords on the guitar. I'm not much of a cook but I would really love to learn to make some new dishes and I especially love to eat delicious food ;) I am pretty amazing at making breakfast though. Eggs, papas, bacon. My specialty!

I would really like to learn Spanish, I've been using Duolingo for the past couple weeks to help me get started.

I really enjoy dancing! I'd love to learn some salsa, and more intricate 2-step moves.
