ABOUT ME

I grew up in Alaska, so I have an appreciation for the outdoors and also serious wanderlust from being geographically isolated. I currently live in and am obsessed with Chicago. I love walking around the city, meeting amazing people and eating delicious food. Vinyasa yoga and music are my loves. I am a very curious person and love to learn about pretty much anything. My current curiosities are space, string theory and a tribe called quest.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat everyone with respect and kindness. Find humor with strangers. Be as present as possible. Love yourself and show others that you care. Work hard for what you care about. Find nature. Ask questions. Learn all you can. Smile often.
