The Full Story
About me
LIFE BEFORE
BUBBLEGUM
I was born in California in 1993. I grew up in a small town in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains where I quickly discovered a love for nature and art. In 2011, I graduated high school and moved to the California Central Coast to go to college.
In 2013, unfulfilled with college life, I left school and my 4 jobs to start my 9 year career as a freelance model. During this time I traveled regularly around the United States, and occasionally overseas to locations including Iceland, Amsterdam, and Barcelona to name a few of my favorite places I've been. In 2015, I moved to Philadelphia to further pursue modeling. I frequently worked in New York City and continued to travel. In 2019, I moved to Washington state in hope of winding down on my travels and settling down a bit.

bubblegum
and beyond
Not long after my move to Washington, I started blowing bubbles. I was contacted by a follower of my modeling work. They commisioned me to start creating bubblegum content, and offered much advice and encouragement. From there, I discovered an entire community of bubblegum lovers who have continued to support me, allowing my bubblegum blowing skills to grow and grow. As of 2022, bubble blowing is officially my full-time job. Thank you for making this possible!

OTHER INTERESTS
I have a deep appreciation for nature. There are many outdoor activities I enjoy including hiking, camping, gardening, and foraging for useful wild plants. In 2021, I returned to school in pursuit of a Bachelor of Science degree in Plant Biology.
​
I am always exploring new creative mediums. Some of my most favorite forms of expression are photography, self portraiture, film development, pottery, makeup, hula hooping, and most recently pole dancing. I have
a passion for visual art and like to visit museums and gallery shows, watch television and movies, etc.
When I'm not blowing bubbles, out in nature, or stimulated by art, you might find me snuggling my
fiance Jeff and our 3 cats, smoking weed, tending
to my many house plants, or (most likely) studying.
