About Me

no mundane options.

i'm a junior at woods.
i listen to too much music, make art, and procrastinate.
my savior is my source of strength and everything i hope to be.

My Interests

my savior. family. friends. art. sculpture. black and white photos. thrifting. downtown. laughter. lunch dates. picnics. cold weather. scarves. music. life, in general.
i think NYU's art program is pretty great too.

Music:

melodies.
