1. There is no cure for my curiosity

I get fired up about traveling the world where I can learn, explore my passion for cultures and creativity through photography. I am moved by nature, waterfronts, live music, and listening to open-hearted people express their emotional pain. Curiosity for this world and beyond keeps my soul on fire. 
 

2. Fear crippled me.

I spent a good portion of my childhood afraid of my own body. After University, I traveled, chased my curiosity, found a home in my body, and continue to realize my potential every day.
 

3. I believe in building a meaningful and authentic life, not just a business. 

I'm motivated to uncover meaning and purpose in everything I do and experience. I remind myself everyday, "serve the world, not my ego".

 4. I'm an evidence-based science brain with a poetic heart. 

For the longest time, I thought I had to choose one or the other. Now I love and nurture both, equally.
 

5. Small talk pushes me to the edges of a room

I feel most at home in raw and open-hearted conversations. Small talk makes me feel like authenticity is dying on the vine.
 

6. I'm never reading just one book. 

My desk has 3 or 4 (sometimes 6) books that I'm eagerly soaking in. 
 

7. I'm a water sign.

Home is where the water is.
