About me:

I'm in my early twenties. I am excited by life and the experience of living it to the fullest. I work in television and have realized that what brings me joy is being out with the people hearing and sharing their stories. I love to learn and explore and grow. And about 99.9% of the time you'll find me with a smile on my face.

Conversations, politics, parties, friends, and dancing...especially dancing.

Tunes I rock out to:

Honestly...Anything with Rythm... I love Manu Chao, Citizen Cope, The Arcade Fire, Mr. Marley, Paul Simon, The Streets, Van Morrison, Modest Mouse, Tupac, Nelly Nelly Furtado, Andrea Botticelli, The whole Garden State sound track, Enya, Mickey Avalon, & U2.
but right now I can't seem to stop playing Regina Specktor and Thriving Ivory.
and I know you didn't ask, but if I had a personal Anthem that played everytime I walked into a room...It would be Paul Simon's 'Have a Good Time' from the Negotiations and Love Songs album.

Backpacking with a friend...but I also enjoy a good 5 Star and a hot shower every now and then.
