About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm currently in grad school, working part-time, and trying to just do my thang. I don't take myself too seriously, love to do things outside, cook, and explore!

PHILOSOPHY

To see the ridiculous in life. To create positive change in the world.

"...for them, to live is to sing and love." -Gauguin

"To take only pictures, leave only footprints" - Leave No Trace
