ABOUT ME

a philadelphia area native, spent two years as a peace corps volunteer in zambia, now living in beaumont, tx teaching nutrition to low income groups and working on my academic credentials towards becoming a registered dietician. love to have fun, explore and goof off. open minded, my personality has been shaped in part by my myriad of friends from all walks of life. looking forward to hosting!!!

PHILOSOPHY

"and in that moment, i swear we were infinite." - greatest line from a book ever.
