history nerd.

armchair profiler.

perpetual nomad. 

I like to thank my fourth grade math teacher for making me hate math, because it led me to discover my knack for storytelling and creativity. Turns out, culture, people, and ideas are way more interesting anyway. From beauty to banking to beer, I love finding the truths and tensions that spark big ideas. 

When I’m not strategizing, I'm likely traveling, indulging my outdoors-y alter ego, wishing my dog could talk back to me, cheering on Arsenal from afar, or reliving the trauma of coming in second for wittiest in high school.
