About Me

I start graduate school at Stanford-PGSP Consortium in September to earn my doctorate in clinical psychology!! Needless to say the next 5 years of my life are going to be really intense. For now I'm an R.A. for SFSU's Motivation & Emotion Research Lab, phone counselor at the Contra Costa Crisis Center, and working at Dirito Brothers to pay off some bills. I love what I do and I am very passionate with what I'm in the process of learning and achieving. Aside from school and work, I make it a point to have plenty of time for my friends, family, and especially for myself as all three are what bring me the most enjoyment out of life.I love working out, the beach, being outdoors, laughing, good conversation, cuddling, ethiopian food, gym classes, lazy nights in sweats, shopping splurges, smores at bonfires, Pinot Grigio, tennis against the wall, terrible comedies, french tipped toes, and designer bags.

Movies:

I tend to really like stupid comedies. Some all time favorites are Anchorman, 40 Year old Virgin, Billy Madison, Old School, Taladega Nights, Wedding Crashers, Airplane, Napolean Dynamite, and Mean Girls. I really don't like chick flicks or sad movies but I will occasionally watch a scary movie as long as I have someone to cuddle with!

Television:

House, Grey's Anatomy, Mythbusters, Robot Chicken, Daily Show...and my guilty pleasure: Girls Next Door!

Books:

I prefer books that make me smarter- anything else I feel like Im wasting time. Love Irvin Yalom.

Heroes:

My Mom and Dad - I can only hope to have as amazing of a marriage as they have, and to be as amazing as they are as parents.
