my fanny pack is sweaty.

About Me

i love life. it's good. i like to believe anything is possible. i'm sort of an extremist- it's all or nothing with me, what you see is what you get. i am pretty chill but hyperactive. i smile a lot and have a loud laugh. some people say it's contagious. i like that. i like adventure and spontaneity. i'm always thinking and i love being creative. i like new places and i love being a "regular". i love being outside. Running is my release, and surfing makes me happy. i love people- a lot. i love God and being loved by Him. i love art and want to change the world through it.

My Interests

for now: painting. photography. traveling the world. running. surfing. the ocean. hiking. biking. being outside as much as possible. trying new things. working with kids. coaching. gymnastics. spontaneity. adventure. surprises. people. people-watching. red red wine. dos perros. the color blue. green lemonade. talking to old people. road trips. rancho la puerta. randomness...
