Nomadic Backpacker

I consider myself a “jack of all trades” type. I have degrees in English and Cultural Anthropology. Immediately after college, I got a job as a Field Technician Archaeologist. I completed project-based work around Northern California for 2 years (I call it “getting paid to go hiking”) before quitting and becoming a full-time model. While modeling I worked on my own brand, establishing myself as an influencer/content creator. During this time I also worked as a DJ at nightclubs in San Francisco (I once had 5 jobs simultaneously!). Now I travel the world for leisure. I love to go on adventures, and I seek to gamify my life whenever possible.

My main goal with travel is to live “alternatively”—which to me means living in a situation that is not sedentary and does not involve paying rent to a landlord. I carry a tent in my backpack so I am prepared to post up anywhere overnight if need be.

I am currently letting the wind take me wherever it wants. An important part of my journey has become about leaning into the ebb and flow of things, letting the spirit of adventure guide my path.
