ABOUT ME
I was born in Tulsa, OK (USA) and at 12 years old my family moved to Perth, Western Australia. When I was 16 I moved to Chicago, then I went to university in Pittsburgh, studied for a year in Madrid, and then moved to New York after graduating. I've lived now in São Paulo for 5 years and I love it here. Brazil is my favorite country, but I enjoy traveling and being exposed to other cultures as much as possible. My family lives in New Zealand (South Island). I am pretty low key and calm about everything.
