CURRENT MISSION

To live in the present EVERYday

ABOUT ME

I am a college student in upstate New York but grew up in Berkeley, California. I study dance, film and literature, and also have many other interests. I am pretty calm and grounded in nature, but love doing things that require lots of energy- experiencing new cities, exploring the outdoors (via cayaking, backpacking, cycling etc), going dancing all night, going on road trips and adventures whenever I can... At school I spend my time choreographing dances and making fun performance art, and on weekends I try to explore new places close to my school.

PHILOSOPHY

live presently and be kind to others.
