The holiday gifting season is always one of the most stressful seasons. As much as I love giving gifts, budgeting and timing never seem to match up and I’m left flustered. Until this year! It is the first week of November and I am ecstatic to say that I have already purchased everyone’s Christmas presents! … Continue reading Before You Wreck Yourself
Something that’s been missing in my life has been a creative outlet outside of my day-job. I’ve joined committees and groups outside of work, even volunteering, but there was still a gaping hole for a creative need. Having an outlet that you can turn to and invest your energy into can bring a positive reinforcement … Continue reading A Little on the Side
I didn’t really feel like I missed out on much by going to Pepperdine for college, but one thing I felt like I didn’t get to experience was the excitement of college football!

Fun fact: El Yunque is completely free and is the only tropical rainforest in the national forest system...pretty cool and beautiful to say the least. El Yunque is decently far from Old … Continue reading Chasing Waterfalls
After a restful night, we woke up to the sun through the curtains and the water hitting the shore and smiled because it was time to go on the Bacardí Distillery Tour! This was probably my favorite day of our vacation and it was worth every penny spent. We started off with breakfast at Zest, … Continue reading Some of Y’all Never Had Bacardí for Breakfast
Puerto Rico was incredible...I’m not even going to pretend like it wasn’t the tropical escape that I desperately needed. From incredible food to breathtaking views, it was something out of a Pinterest board. We decided to stay at the San Juan Water & Beach Club and I will recommend it until the day that I … Continue reading Slow M(ocean)
The Good List: Deleting “me” & replacing with “we” What I’m Here For Here I Go Again: The time has come again for me to move!
