CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I try to live my life in a way that will allow me to live with myself. To me, this means taking chances and always looking for new experiences. I am unusually open to new ideas and I love collecting memories of my adventures. I am an urban explorer and have explored in and around Chicago. I have been playing ukulele for over 6 years. I crochet and I like being surrounded by plants and nature.

PHILOSOPHY

Because I find myself able to assimilate into any situation, I've found that I can easily lose myself. There are so many people in this world that I would love to get to know. It overwhelms me. I truly feel that we are limitless and believe people are inherently good.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can and have taught ukulele, I can teach you to crochet, and I have a good enough grip on swing dancing (I CAN DO LIFTS!)
I would like to learn more about sustainability, eating healthy, drinks, tea WITH drinks, and diversity. Most importantly, I want to learn to play new musical instruments.
