Hola!

I'm a recent graduate with an MPH, Global Health and MPA, Health Policy. Originally from California, but am currently living in Brooklyn, NY.

I work with non-profits and international development organizations, am a complete yoga-addict and just trying to go with the flow and do some good. A firm believer that the most magical experiences can happen unexpectedly and when you're open-minded.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once paid $100 to hold a panda cub for 30 seconds. I do not regret it.
