About Me

I'm a senior at Chico State doubling majoring in Psychology and English.  I spend the majority of my time studying, reading, running, and walking my dog Titus. I'm an only child raised by my single, hippie mom.  My mom owned a bakery while I was growing up, forcing me to aquire the ability to bake.  I love Thai and Indian food.  My favorite books are The Alchemy of Desire and One Hundred Years of Solitude.
