About Me


I'm a hair stylist at Urban Body Studios, artist, traveler, optimist, wine connoisseur, adventurer, (wanna-be) drum player, bike rider (soon), reader, Arrested Development fan, dog lover, Converse wearer, barter system aficionado, music addict, social explorer, urban hiker...
I am a survivor of a close-call motorcycle accident in Oct 2007. I have learned how to be strong and persevere. I love my life and I'm willing to go through a lot of pain to keep it! I came out of the experience with a better understanding of family, friendship, personal value, health, strength, and my nine lives.
