An ambitious entrepreneur, optimist and always up for adventure.

Traveling in Brazil until late August!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went from total kitchen douche to cooking like a champ in a couple of months.

Found my tribe in Rio de Janeiro.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll cook!

Also, I can teach you to play the guitar, cook like a pro or make the pizza of your life if you teach me something you're good at.

I'd love to learn to draw.
