About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To get out of my comfort zone! experience new things and have fun.

ABOUT ME

I am calm and laid-back, with an open-minded attitude about life and people. It is important to me to live with kindness, intelligence, and honesty. Sustainable living is a general interest of mine, I try to make things myself instead of purchacing them. I don't like to feel lazy, so I try to make the most out of my time; but that doesn't mean I'm always busy. I think relaxing is a very worthwhile activity.

PHILOSOPHY

eat healthy foods together. dance and sing together. listen to your body. practice logic and reject greed.

Interests

I love experiencing food and music from all different cultures- I've never tried a type of cuisine or heared a style of music that didn't like! I enjoy jogging, and prefer to be outdoors as much as possible. Finding time for relaxation in my day is very important to me. I've recently been spending my free time by writing raps, hula hooping, cooking, and going to thrift stores.
I love children. I recently have become a mentor to help 'at risk' youth in Chicago. Education, health, and environmental sustainability are subjects that interest me and I feel strongly about.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I want to feel peace, I remember one evening gazing at the sky with the love of my life. As we watched the sun set, one side of the sky turned a gorgeous golden-orannge. The other side of the sky was begining to turn an inky blue purple, and the moon and stars was beginning to appear. The entire sky looked like a rainbow, it was absolutely breathtaking.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to hula hoop! or simply entertain you with my skills:) I'm a drummer and would love to jam. and my boyfriend and I love to cook, let us make you a delicious feast to thank you for your generosity!
