who i am

I’m still trying to figure that out – probably will be for the rest of my life. Finding yourself is a constant journey that may not necessarily have a destination. However, I do know what I am like today.

I am a writer, photographer, cook, daughter, sister, CU alumna, new media enthusiast, and so much more.

I love my family. I love my friends. I love my cat. I love myself.

I wear the highest heels, fall in love really fast and am a workaholic. I go to extremes.

I’m impatient, I worry too much, I wear my heart on my sleeve, I question everything and I dip my toes in too many puddles for my feet to stay grounded.

I am addicted to caffeine, sex and the Internet.

I believe in women’s rights, freedom of speech, human equality and democracy.

I believe things go wrong so you know what feels right. People change so you can learn to let go. What’s meant to be will be – only if you work at it. You have the power to create your reality. And happily ever after is not just for fairytales.

where i’m from

I am from Denver, Colo., went to school in Boulder, Colo., and followed my dreams to San Francisco, Calif. I now live in the heart of the “TenderNob” – three blocks from Union Square, surrounded by buildings and people and the breath of city life.

what i do

By day, I am the Community Genius at Context Optional, Inc. Context Optional is a social marketing company that devises and implements social marketing plans for Fortune 500 companies. I love my job.

By night, I am still obsessed with social media. I am an aspiring photographer, avid movie-watcher, restaurant enthusiast and all-around new-city explorer.
