I’m an ambivert who loves books, taking long walks, and having long conversations. My favorite authors include R.K. Narayan, Haruki Murakami (aware of the criticisms!), Satoshi Yagisawa, and Jhumpa Lahiri. With a background in Psychology, I admire Albert Ellis and REBT. I spend my free time reading, crocheting, writing poems or blog posts when inspired, and watching quiet crime/thriller shows, spending time with my family & friends. I’m always drawn to genuine conversations and discovering the little things that make each person and culture unique.
