Get To Know Me 🍋✨🫶🏽

So glad you're here to get to know me! Beyond the quick facts, I really want to dive deeper into what truly makes me, *me*, and what I hope to bring to the Lemon8 community. As a 24-year-old navigating life from Metro Detroit, I’m constantly *chasing new experiences*, whether it's uncovering hidden gems in my city or jet-setting across the globe. My recent trips to the dazzling city of Dubai and the vibrant beaches of Tulum weren't just vacations; they were incredible opportunities to soak in different cultures, try new cuisines, and of course, capture some amazing memories and content along the way. I’m excited to share my best travel hacks and destination guides with you all, so definitely stay tuned for those adventures! My career in commercial real estate keeps me incredibly busy, but it also offers a unique perspective on urban development and the pulse of local economies, especially right here in Detroit. I find understanding how our cities grow and change absolutely fascinating. This summer marks another big step as I head to Raleigh, NC, for an internship – it’s another exciting chapter in my journey of always chasing new experiences and expanding my horizons. Moving to a new city means a whole new world to explore: discovering charming coffee shops, serene parks (perfect for a sunny day selfie, maybe in a cute striped outfit or a shimmery top!), and all the best local hangouts. I’m planning to share my Raleigh exploration journey every step of the way, from finding the perfect apartment to locating the best spots for my beloved Iced Shaken Espresso. For those wondering about my day-to-day life, it's definitely not all work and travel! When I'm unwinding, you’ll most likely find me curled up on the couch with Parker, my adorable black cat (he’s quite the character and loves to photobomb my mirror selfies!), binging the latest Kdrama or a heartwarming romcom. I’m a huge pop music fan, and Ariana Grande is absolutely my go-to artist for a mood boost. I also love to stay active, even though volleyball has me sidelined with an injury right now – but that just means more time for discovering new hobbies or even styling some fresh outfits! Think comfy black halter tops, light-wash jeans, and sneakers for a casual day out, or something sparkly for a night with friends. I believe in living a full, authentic life and sharing those moments, both big and small, with my community. I'm eager to build a space here on Lemon8 where we can all inspire each other to try new things, embrace our passions, and just enjoy the journey. What kind of content are you hoping to see from me?
