About Me
I am originally from San Diego, California, and now call Austin home. While both cities are big and vibrant, they each have their own unique vibe. In my free time, I love paddleboarding, working out, hosting game nights with friends, and exploring new cafes/restaurants around the city.
Just for fun:
- Favorite fast food: Chipotle
- Favorite coffee shop order: Iced Chai Latte
- Favorite colors: Black, green, and purple
- Favorite sport: Soccer
- Favorite TV show: Grey's Anatomy
