I'm a small-town Southern girl turned global citizen with a penchant for off-beat adventures. After living in the heart of NYC for two years, I'm excited to call the Bay Area my newest home. I'm looking forward to planting my roots in this clay loam soil, and I love living a bi-coastal lifestyle here in the US despite how much I miss living abroad. Educated, well-traveled, a natural storyteller, and a master of subtle sarcasm, I can say with confidence that we will never run out of things to talk (or laugh) about. I take pride in being an all-natural, down-to-earth gal who values genuineness, hospitality, and sharing presence with others. I feel just as comfortable in an evening gown as I do in a pair of overalls, and I try not to take myself too seriously despite a world that constantly encourages the dangerous habits of an untamed ego. When I'm not planning my next international escapade, you can find me tending to my vast collection of houseplants, hosting dinner parties, training for a Spartan Race, or getting lost in my artwork. I am the proud cat mom of two special needs kitties, and I may or may not have deep conversations with them on a daily basis. 😹😹 I'm incredibly intimate, deeply engaging, and a bit of an exhibitionist in disguise. I warmly await the moment where your hand softly meets mine...
