CURRENT MISSION

To embrace every moment.

ABOUT ME

I'm a recent college graduate who's taking a year off before graduate school to take some time for myself, work at a bookstore/coffee shop, and travel. I wholeheartedly relish new experiences and the opportunity to meet and converse with individuals from across the globe. While I love exploring the unknown, I also appreciate the quiet moments of life spent reading, savoring a cup of tea, or practicing yoga.

PHILOSOPHY

Live compassionately.
