I'm originally from SoCal, but spent 9 amazing years in DC and NYC before heading to the Bay Area - it's been great being back in California!
I love exploring new things, and as such, am an avid traveler. My top 3 favorite trips so far are to Belize, Germany (for the World Cup), and Thailand. I also have enjoyed living in Chile, Ecuador, and Nicaragua. I hope to continue to stretch my limits throughout life and like hanging out with people who like to get out of their comfort zone every once in awhile.
Overall, I'm an extremely friendly and caring person. I am not scared of meeting groups of people whom I don't know; in fact, I actually love those situations. I'm extremely loyal and generous to my friends, but at the same time can be picky with whom I share private information.
I also really enjoy an active lifestyle and thus go for runs, play sports or visit the gym on a regular basis. I am also a big sports fan, although only really have time to follow basketball.
Lastly, I really value my sense of humor. I don't take myself too seriously and think being able to laugh at myself is a key reason why I lead a low-stress life. I laugh hard and often and really value others with similar senses of humor.
