Have you ever gotten lost on purpose?

Yes! I had the opportunity to study abroad in Paris. I loved riding my bike along the river, finding interesting architecture, and sketching what I saw. Bonus points if I found a cute bookshop or boulangerie.

What valuable lesson did you learn from your parents?

My parents taught me how to be kind and generous, and the value of learning about different cultures around the world. Thanks to them, I also learned the value of working hard and gaining other people’s trust.

Where would you take a month-long road trip?

I would love to explore Yosemite National Park. So many trails, waterfalls, and lakes… Feel like a month would not even be enough!

What language(s) do you know?

I am lucky to speak English, Spanish, and Italian fluently. I’m still working on my intermediate French!

Dogs or cats?

I love my rescue dog chihuahua, Twiggy! I am team dogs.

Coffee or tea?

Nothing like a delicious black tea with a splash of coconut milk… my favorite!
