🖋 Tell us about yourself.

I grew up in Austin and now travel back and forth from Chicago. I've been to all 50 states and pride myself on the creation of witty hashtags.

☕️ What is your favorite coffee shop where you live? 

I really like Caffe Medici. There are a few locations throughout the city and they are really big on coffee education so I learn something new or try something great every time.

🚍 What is your favorite food truck where you live? 

While it's hard not to go with the original Torchy's Taco, I really love Arlo's. It's 100% plant-based and super delicious.

🍽 What is your favorite restaurant where you live?

Clay Pit - authentic Indian food in a gorgeous brick building that always hits the spot! They have a great lunch buffet and a happy hour as well.

🚗 If you could travel to any US city right now where would it be? 

I've recently checked every state off the list which I think is a huge accomplishment so I would love to revisit some I didn't get to see all of or spend a lot of time in. I'd love to see Savannah or Charleston and get a taste of some old school southern charm!

✈️ If you could travel to any country right now where would it be? 

Thailand. It's been on my bucket list for years and I want to go volunteer with the elephants and eat incredible street Thai food while gawking at the gorgeous architecture.
