1. I always find it so hard to get into a routine, but I know it makes it easier to sleep… so, What is your morning and night time routine?
I definitely have a routine because I am always so busy! I try to end all of my days with some yoga. Then I eat an early meal and drink some hot tea before showering, brushing my teeth, and putting on my body oil and face moisturizer. I go to sleep around 12 or 1. My days vary but I wake up, pee first! wash my face, brush my teeth, do my hair and head out! I usually have my outfit picked out the night before.  



2. What is your major at school, and what would be your dream job?

I just became certified as a yoga teacher and will start teaching classes in about a month. It was an amazing and life changing experience that I really treasure. I am in school majoring in alternative medicine, and if you watch my videos you would know that my Moms a chiropractor and I have been raised pretty naturally and organically. I eventually want to have my own personal yoga practice out of my home and be very involved in alternative medicine throughout the community, as a herbologist or aryurvedic practictioner that can do some public speaking and lead seminars and organize events. I am a huge advocate of a healthy lifestyle so I will continue to practice that and pass it on to others! I plan on making my own success out of what I love. 



3. What does your bedroom look like?

My life is super confusing because I still have all of my stuff at home with my parents but I typically always stay with my boyfriend and I take over his drawers on a daily basis! Lol. One day we will get a new place together 🙂 I will tell you about my room at home though… I have changed it around so many times! Right now my walls are a dark brown with suede finish. I have a big dark brown armoire for my clothes with a jewelry box and perfume tray on top. I hav a flat screen mounted on the wall above it. Next to that I have a small purple table with candles on it, and a shelf with frames and buddahs. The next wall is my closet. Then I have a tall white piece where I keep books an movies and purses hanging on it. My bed is low, white, and it has biege pillows surrounding it, so it’s kind of like a couch bed, I love it. Then over my bed on one wall is a picture of Marilyn Monroe and the other wall has a bulletin board where I hang pictures and necklaceS and a shelf with my phone under it! That’s pretty much it. I feel like I’m never home so i fail to spruce it up!


4. Your house is burning, and you can only take 3 items with you, what do you bring?

I’m going to consider my jeans to be one thing, my purses to be another, and then my yoga mat ofcourse!



5. What are 3 things you can not leave the house without, on a daily basis?

Phone, purse, accessories



6. How do you keep your teeth so white?!

They can never be white enough! I brush them 3 times a day and floss constantly. I guess the rest is genetics



7. What are some of your favorite foods? 

When you go grocery shopping what are some staple items you buy?
I love my spinach and kale smoothies so I always buy the fruits and veges that I use as supplies for that! I buy fruits, veges, and things for dinner during the week like chicken. I also get plain yogurt that I like to put berries and granola in for breakfast!



8. You walk into a Starbucks. What is your typical drink of choice?

I don’t drink coffee so if I go to starbucks, my exact order would be “a grande iced green tea with extra ice, no classic, and 3 raw sugars” I’m very particular 🙂



9. What are some summer staple items of yours? 

Rompers, gladiators, oxfords, bangles, long necklaces, my new Tory burch tote, and my next buys will be new toms and a white Michael kors watch!
