Currently based in New York City, I am an avid concert-goer, lover of art, history, and science. I worked as a freelance performer for various large-scale events throughout Central Florida such as Star Wars Celebration and Mega Con. I also worked as a Promotional Model, mainly promoting Diagio brands for a marketing company in addition to representing multiple companies in local tradeshows. I spent much of my free time volunteering for various non-profits including Pinups for Pitbulls, Humane Society, and Soldier Ride by Wounded Warrior Project.

I have a degree in Psychology, however finding work in the field has been a challenge! Fortunately much of what was learned has been applicable to each of the positions I have held with companies. My love for both Psychology and Science has sparked continuous research and studying as a hobby on my free time.

I relocated to NYC in November of 2012 fueled by curiosity and the need for change. I am a full time Executive Assistant. I also recently reconnected with the NYC headquarters of my previous marketing company and am continuing to promote Diageo brands throughout the boroughs.

One of my favorite activities is Obstacle Course Racing. I love the challenge; I love pushing myself -- proving to myself that I can conquer my own mental limitations and cross beyond physical boundaries I used to believe were not possible.

Other passions include weightlifting, reading, dancing, and all things video games and comics -- specifically Batman and Spawn. I enjoy reading in the park while the weather is nice.
