I love everything Disney, Hogwarts, and rainbow. I enjoy an occasional Dodgers or Chargers game from the comfort of home. I don't shy away from trying new foods, exploring the world, and saying no to things that won't make me happy. I'm a coffee lover, professional dog snuggler, and take Lego building very seriously.
