These “about me” things have been weird since Myspace so just pour a healthy serving of your favorite pinot bear with me on this. I’m a 23-year-old woman working my butt off every single day to get closer to life I’ve always dreamed of. I’m not married, and I have no kids so this should be like easy right? That’s all perspective, like maybe if I wasn’t an INFJ that would be true, but even though I’m not changing diapers all day and tending to my lovely husband I basically spend 90% of my brainpower trying to understand, and figure out who I actually am and what I actually want. (If you have no idea what I mean by INFJ please go to 16personalities.com and take this personality test. My personality type is INFJ)

I’m originally from Fresno, Ca and I grew up pretty normally (like not white picket fence normal but like real life normal.) We can always go through the childhood stories later on, but the basics are that I am the oldest of my mom’s four kids, I grew up a nerd and graduated high school still a nerd but a little more out of my shell. I went to a super small high school and made some lifelong friends but my desire to get out an explore was always there. I made it to SDSU, joined a sorority and live a healthy, full college experience my freshman year. It was a lifelong dream accomplished, until it came to an end. Long story super short I no longer qualified for financial aid and I couldn’t afford to pay for school AND a place to live on my own, so I opted for the latter and have been doing so ever since.

I moved to LA two years ago in search of a way to create the life I’ve always dreamed of. I thought I wanted to be a model and then a makeup artist then an esthetician then a singer/actress then an influencer then a blogger………and now I’m a blogger and just a little bit of everything else too. I do have a day job but it’s not even worth talking about, it already takes 40 hours of my week and that’s enough.

When one of my best friends Bryiana came to me about starting this blog, joining a wine club, and sharing my experiences, my favorites, my fails, my wins, and basically my life, in hopes of cultivating a community of women who can relate and maybe not feel so alone, I was terrified for half of a second. Then I realized that I there is no way that I am the only person, the only blogger heck the only blogger in LA who has gone through the things that I have since living here. So hello new friends, I am so excited to begin this new journey with you.
