Fun facts:

I am the least flexible person you will ever meet.
I have middle child syndrome, but I must say having 4 siblings is the best thing that could have ever happened to me.
I was part of our Jazz Vocal Ensemble and the Los Angelese Honor Choir in high school. So, yes, I do love to skat.
I love doing all sorts of outdoor activities and it's my low key goal to master all of them. Some of my favorite activities include climbing,snowboarding, lobster diving and spearfishing, motorcycle riding, backpacking, and surfing.
I watched the entire season of Stranger Things 2 in one sitting. It's the only time I have ever done such a thing in my life, and I got sick after. #worthit
