A typical day in my life includes….
waking up and eating a healthy breakfast, getting in a quick workout, spending some time outdoors and either going to work or school.
I was born…
in the very beautiful city of Chicago!
My favorite thing about Arizona is….
the sky. Every night the sunset is so unique and mesmerizing and the stars are always very visible where I live.
I’m listening to…
many different artists at the moment. I’m enjoying Kanye West, Drake, and Chance the Rapper the most but I am also loving a lot of country, alternative, and reggae music lately.
My family…
means the world to me and are my biggest supporters. They constantly encourage me to follow my heart and my dreams. Without their support I wouldn’t be anywhere or have the opportunities and wisdom that I have today.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
my favorite creator Casey Neistat. He is well known in the Youtube community and is a huge inspiration in my life and to my creativity. His story and life is so interesting and exciting I just can’t stop watching him! He uploads videos everyday and they never fail to amaze me.
One thing I cannot live without would be…
Youtube. I gain so much inspiration and motivation daily from the creators of the site who constantly upload amazing videos.
When I was younger…
I wanted to be a pastry chef. I love to bake and decorate cakes and cupcakes! I took many classes when I was younger. It is still a hobby of mine that I really enjoy doing, I find it very relaxing.
I’m inspired by…
my mom, Marla. She is a single mom with three teenage girls who is a court reporter by day and superhero by night. She is so strong, independent, and hard working. I constantly am looking to her for advice and inspiration. She is the truly the best, well rounded, big hearted person you will ever meet! She deserves the world!
The one person who motivates me…
is my Papa, Jack Litchman. He is very old school with good morals and even better advice. I learn a lot from him and his words of encouragement always mean so much.
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
hate and violence. It is so senseless and has no purpose. We humans are all the same, with one short life to live and one planet to live it on, why not just LOVE each other?
The perfect day would be…
waking up to the sound of the ocean, and spending the day either on the beach or at an amusement park with my friends and family while enjoying some really good food and listening to some really good music.
My first job was…
seasonal. I worked as a sales associate for Spirit Halloween for a few months and gained some very valuable experience!
My favorite escape…
is the ocean and being outdoors in the sunshine while listening to my favorite music.
My life…
is honestly so amazing and so interesting! I have the most supportive, loving family and friends a girl could ever ask for. I go on many trips and adventures where I am constantly making memories and genuinely enjoying myself. I would not trade my life for the world!
I’m currently working on…
modeling! It is something I have thought about doing for a while and now I am actually pursuing it and really enjoying it!
Always…
love others and love yourself! Don’t be too hard on yourself and never loose hope or passion for something you love.
Never…
let others get in your way of achieving your goals! Be the bigger person and keep your head up high while you follow your dreams!
My favorite quote…
“Do more.” it is so simple but means so much. DO MORE WITH YOUR LIFE. It means to live your life with a purpose! Go out of your comfort zone and really LIVE.
My biggest dream…
is to be ultimately HAPPY with my life and what I have accomplished and who I have made an impact on. It is so important to me that at the end of my life I can look back and know that I did something that mattered or helped someone else.
My Pet Peeve…
is when things are very unorganized or dirty. I would definitely say I’m a very organized, clean person that likes everything to be a certain way. It keeps my life on track and allows me to get everything done more efficiently.
