About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See the world and everyone in it!

ABOUT ME

I am super social and love to talk to anyone about anything aka I am a super extrovert. I am passionate, friendly and approachable. I love meeting new people and traveling. I just graduated from UC Berkeley here in California, where I studied Spanish and Film. This fall I am moving to Madrid to teach English. Overall, I am low key and laid back, but do love things organized.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as you would like to be treated. Respect is key.
