ABOUT ME
I'm originally from outside of Boston, USA and currently reside in Chicago. By day I coordinate an education program at a rape crisis center, but by night I do improv and stand up comedy :)
I adore traveling and have lived abroad in a few different capacities (Spain, Brazil, Argentina). I am taking a trip to Europe this summer and couldn't be more excited, it's been too long since I explored!
PHILOSOPHY
Too many quotes to pick one that encompasses everything I feel about life!
