What do you like about Mustard Lane or just working events in general?
I love that Mustard Lane is a community of kind, hardworking, and lively people. I enjoy working events because it means impacting people in a meaningful way, it allows for people to step away from one reality and into another, even for a magical moment.

Seeking new experiences!
Favorite restaurant or food?
Buddha Bowl – basically anything with rice and lots of vegetables.

To welcome in 30 with a bang!

Antarctica because not many people have been there and I want to make it to all seven continents.
What’s your favorite way to spend a day off from being a Laner?
I love going into nature and connecting.

Professional stylist traveling around the world for clients.
