Born and raised in South Lake Tahoe, I always dreamed about what laid beyond my backyard. Sure, the smell of pine trees and sight of freshly fallen snow was always magical, but I yearned for more. So, after high school, I packed up my bags, left the mittens behind, and moved to sunny Santa Barbara for undergrad. After graduation, I moved to San Francisco for a year, then to Malibu/Los Angeles to complete my Master’s degree at Pepperdine. Of course, I couldn’t leave the beach quite yet, so I worked as an Undergraduate Advisor at UC Santa Barbara for two years post grad. Now I live in a new state, and I’m just seeing how it goes… I am taking in all the new experiences, and I am figuring out where I want to lay down some roots (next few years pending).

A little more about me: my partner and I have a corgi named Comet, whom we brought home in 2020 (I am quite obsessed so you’ll find many blog posts about him). I like listening to true crime podcasts, Netflix and chillin, traveling, opting outside, Autumn and all the fun Halloween things (Christmas is my favorite holiday though), and reading/writing. I also live a healthy lifestyle and enjoy life’s pleasures in moderation. I am big on cute but comfy clothing and like to think I am a bit of a fashionista. I try to immerse myself in creative outlets (hence my blog) and I make a point to live life to the fullest!
