I had a blast volunteering at an elementary school I had a blast volunteering at an elementary school this past week! Helped some third graders practice their math with an Easter egg hunt. These third graders have made me wonder if I can find my sense of childlike wonder again. That natural curiosity and openness. #easter #childlikeliving #linkinbio

It was just that good. The latte spoke for itself. I'll be back for the championship series coffee. #linkinbio #busancoffee #aerycoffee

What a way to finish the last wedding of the year. What a way to finish the last wedding of the year. Congratulations to Robert and Hong! I'm honored to have been there for your special day! Your wedding was beautiful in its simplicity and deeply meaningful. The traditional Cathlotic elements made it feel intimate. Your reception was the hottest spot in Houston that night. I wish you guys so much strength, love, and patience for this next chapter of your lives! #linkinbio
Tried out Brazilian jiu-jitsu for the first time! Tried out Brazilian jiu-jitsu for the first time! Thanks for showing me the ropes Camilo :). Not as bad as I thought. I definitely was nervous for how uncomfortable and painful it would be - that's how it is with most things you try for the first time. Jiu-jitsu is definitely on the list of things to pick up in the near future :) #linkinbio

To be honest, I have no idea how I've made it this To be honest, I have no idea how I've made it this far. Absolutely thankful to have these friends here to celebrate getting to 30. This is just a small snapshot of who I am thankful to and for. There's many other people not in this picture who have made me a better person. Thank you for letting me share this absolutely crazy life with you! Thank you to those who reached out to wish me a Happy Birthday. I'm absolutely terrified of what's to come in this next decade. Cheers!
