Hobbies
I love reading, writing, and watching lots of movies. My professional goal is to be a TV writer / Showrunner. I love sci-fi, fantasy, comedies, and scary movies! I’m currently writing a Young Adult novel about vampires in Harlem. I also enjoy yoga, long distance running, baking, and traveling. I have lived and worked abroad in London, Los Angeles, and Beijing. I have traveled to Japan, France, Mexico and Spain and will be traveling to Colombia later this year. I love languages and in high school I studied Latin, Ancient Greek, and Greek. I am currently teaching myself Spanish and French and I hope to learn Portuguese one day as well.
