My name is Jasmine. I moved to Los Angeles from Washington, DC about 1.5 years ago. I have a major in Linguistics from the University of Virginia. I’m very chill and laidback, kind of a hippie, social, always late haha, love meeting new people, am a people-person, enjoy going out, wine, parties, music/concerts/shows, and various other new & fun events.

PHILOSOPHY "Experience everything once." "Live according to your own personal sense of morality." “Live, laugh, love.”
