about me

I’m a water sign, so naturally, I’m my happiest self when swimming in, looking at, or drinking water.

I’m an old soul, but in the sense that I love trivia, baking, sewing, reading, film photography, birdwatching, nature walks, and going to bed early.

My favorite animal is a shark, but my favorite child (and only child) is my dog, Charlie.
