ABOUT ME
I have just finished my undergrad! I studied a variety of different things, like architecture, urbanism, ethnography, and economic development. My thesis was about building assets with community organizations that fight against no-fault eviction and foreclosure.
I´m always willing to learn new things and I´m interested in music, art, dance, and of course, travel. Also food. Always food.
In my free time, I love to explore cities and write short stories, but I also enjoy going out dancing, grabbing a coffee, a drink, walking in parks, everything.
