I'm currently in the process of launching a wellness brand. I'm really into philosophy, psychology, mindfulness, and deep conversations. I love discussing complex questions about life and thinking of solutions. I had to grow up very fast due to a difficult upbringing and early adulthood years, so I'm kinda an old soul.

My music playlist is like 90% 70s, 80s, 90s, and early 00s. I still like modern-day movies and tv shows, but recently I been watching Hitchcock movies along with other movies from that era. What can I say I'm a sucker for nostalgia. lol

I'm a former bodybuilder but had to give it up for a while due to some health (thyroid) issues. Currently, I try to walk at least two miles a day and do a short bodyweight work out. Hopefully, I can one day get back the stamina and strength I use to have because working out is honestly one of my favorite things in the world! As far as nutrition goes, I eat a plant-based diet but still like to indulge every once in a while. If you want, I can show you how to make some plant-based meals/snacks without breaking the bank.

If you're a creative type, we will get along great. I write songs, short stories, design clothing, do photography, and graphic designs, I'm working on my first documentary that I hope to release online in January. Physically I love building/repurposing things with my hands even though if I'm being honest; I'm not very good at it. lol
