I’m an LA girl currently based in Toronto, and I’m a huge neuroscience enthusiast, an eternal optimistic, and a foodie.

I always thought that I’m now a very knowledgeable person, but the more I learned in my field of study, the more I understood how little I actually knew. I enjoy learning new things and love to be humbled by the infinite knowledge there is, not only in my field of study, but in the world.

Life would be easier if we could just say I love you, thank you, I’m sorry, I wanna fart.

I adore the concept of peace with a passion. Whether it’s artwork that depicts serene scenes from the Buddha’s life or my staunch support for animal right activists that has transpired into a university club, I’m always on the get go to create harmony on the planet.
