I love many things about being a woman, I love feeling feminine and beautiful, and getting to do my hair and makeup while watching my favorite beauty gurus on YouTube. I love that I can be strong while also being soft and kind. I love wearing dresses and pretty clothes. I love how sensitive I am, and how deeply I feel emotions. I love my natural ability to love and nurture things. I love the close relationships of sisterhood and friendship that come with being a woman.

The gym is a big part of my life and is something that brings me so much joy and fulfillment. I’ve been consistently lifting weights for the past two years and have learned so much about discipline, dedication, and working hard. Building muscle takes years of consistent training and can be an extremely slow process. It has taught me a lot about myself and the things I need to work on to be a better human.

I’ve been struggling with obsessive compulsive disorder and depression since I was a child, and remember being put on medication at the age of twelve because it was making life too difficult for me. I continue to suffer with these disorders and try to manage them the best I can with lots of medications and exposure therapy. The only positive thing that has come from these terrible disorders is my ability to empathize and connect with others that have ocd, depression, or other mental health disorders.

I have had a deep love and compassion for animals since I was a young child, and prefer the company of animals over people. For two years I was a vegan and would volunteer at animal sanctuary’s just to spend time with the animals and try to make a difference in their lives.

My ancestors on both my mom and dad’s side came to the United States from Switzerland around the late 1800’s. There are two main things from my Swiss roots that are very important in my life today, a love for coffee and the great outdoors. I look forward to my morning cup of coffee everyday and go hiking a couple times each month.
