Creating Craigslist Missed Connections Nightly

About Me

I’m an adventure seeker and an avid learner. My family originated out of Oldenburg, Germany and I’ve never really stuck to learning about one particular culture. My adventures have taken me to visit many states in the United States for historical landmarks, music, art, and of course a good night club. I’ve lived in various cultural centers in Southern California studying the Hispanic and Vietnamese cultures. Now I’m in Hollywood studying the glitz and glamour of the city that millions of people visit each year from all over the world. I work in Nashville, TN during the week and live in Hollywood, CA.
