New headshot for my big girl job 💁🏻‍♀️ #atx #austintexas #austin #utaustin #grownasswoman #biggirljob

#storytime I turned 27 last week, and all I really have to say is: Good riddance to 26, one of the hardest years of my life. Over the last 6 months alone, I’ve let go of major parts of my identity and adapted to newness more times than I can count. I said goodbye to my best friend and partner of 4.5 years; I watched the job I’d given so much to over the last 3 years turn into a toxic work environment; a summer fling blew through my life and taught me some hard lessons about decency; and I walked away from my life in Seattle to start over in Austin. It’s definitely a season of growth, and I’m confident the results will be powerful and wonderful and good (I trust God knows what he’s doing with me)—but damn if the process isn’t painful! • • • Don’t get me wrong, there were some definite bright spots this year: I reconnected with old friends and made some great new ones; I started a new job where I feel valued and confident; and I’ve seen a lot of cool places this year—Hawaii, Disney World, and now Bali and Singapore! Lots to be grateful for—including the incredible amount of change I’ve undergone this year, as difficult as it’s been. It’s shown me that I am resilient, I am capable, and I am worthy. • • • So. Cheers to starting over. Cheers to moving forward. Cheers to 27 🍻 • • • #bali #baliindonesia #gatesofheaven #lempuyangtemple #travel #travelphotography #travelgram #traveling #traveller #globetrotter #adventure #adventuretime #adventureisoutthere

Two years ago, I was in Bali with my first great love. Now, here I am again, exploring this wonder of a place—alone. This time around, I’m living out some incredible new experiences (temples, hikes, islands—oh my!), getting to know the new me, all while cherishing the wonderful memories we made here together. And so it goes: I have deep affection for my past, but I’m living for the future now. • • • (This is actually the street our hotel was on. It’s just by sheer coincidence that I stumbled cross it again!) • • • #bali #baliindonesia #indonesia #ubud #ubudbali #travel #travelphotography #traveller #globetrotter #wanderer #wanderlust #travelgram #traveling #adventuretime #adventureisoutthere

Enjoying my second home for one night before flying out to Bali for a birthday adventure. I love Texas, but there ain’t nothing like these #pnw mountains and sunsets 🗻🌅🌲 • • • • #summer #summertime #summeradventures #seattle #pnw #pacificnorthwest #birthdaygirl #bali #baliindonesia

AUSTIN, I’m comin’ home!! Later this month, I’ll start my new job as the Social Media and Digital Marketing Coordinator in the International Office at UT Austin \m/ It’s been real, Seattle, but I’m ready to put my boots back on and melt in the hot hot Texas sun 🤠 • • • • #summer #summertime #summeradventures #seattle #pnw #pacificnorthwest #texas #utaustin #austintexas #yeehaw #howdy #howdyyall #hookem #hookemhorns
