CURRENT MISSION

Put me on a plane and fly me to anywhere.

ABOUT ME

Currently I'm working as a barista in SoHo. I also run a pastry business called Alyssa Marie Patisserie. It's a new company but we all have to start somewhere, right? I'm also starting a company called Eat It Up. It's donation based and the proceeds benefit Nourishing NYC. There will be more info on that soon. I just finished WWOOFing in Southampton, NY at North Sea Farm and had an amazing time!

PHILOSOPHY

In dwelling, live close to the ground.
In thinking, keep it simple.
In conflict, be fair and generous.
In governing, don't try to control.
In work, do what you enjoy.
In family life, be completely present.
~Tao te Ching
