I'm an American living and working in Paris! This is my second year in Paris and love exchanging with and meeting new people.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite movies are by Wes Anderson (Life Aquatic and The Grand Budapest Hotel), Stanley Kubrick (Full Metal Jacket), Quentin Tarantino (Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill), Jean-Luc Godard (a Bout de Souffle), and Xavier Dolan (Mommy and Les Amours Imaginaires).

Favorite authors include Proust 🤓, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Jonathan Franzen, and Jonathan Safron Foer.

My music taste is all over the place, but I'm particularly into indie rock, jazz, and Brit pop/rock. And destiny's child.
