ABOUT ME

Open, curious, and optimistic. 31 years old, born and raised in Santa Cruz, California, went to college in Los Angeles, and currently living in San Francisco. I work in theater and dance, and do flowers on the side. Love music, swimming, trees, eating, being alive.

PHILOSOPHY

Raised vehemently agnostic, but spiritual and nature-oriented. If I had to choose a religion: Buddhism. Life is constantly changing. Always and unavoidably.
