Born and raised San Francisco. Went to school in UC Santa Cruz, and spent nearly half of my undergraduate time out of Santa Cruz, before graduating with a degree in Global Economics.

Formly a chocolate maker back home in San Francisco, currently working as and R&D Chef and confectionary person. Working on becoming a multilingual freak and catching up to my parents who speak 5-6 languages.

Hoping to open a little food bike selling tasty snacks someday.
