I try not to be one of those aggressive vegans. You know, the super judgmental, overbearing, Peta-subscribed kind that literally only speaks vegan. And I know at one point I probably was that damn pretentious, so please, charge it to my head not my heart. Now, I try to be cautious and only mention being …
April is #NationalPoetryMonth. I've enjoyed seeing fellow writers on my feed sharing their new, and even old work. I've always been attracted to the idea of poetry. It wasn't until I gave it a try I grew as a person. Poetry helped me realize less is more. I mean, it wows me when I can …
Now that the smooch is out the bag, many have asked what it was like shooting my first commercial... Back in November I walked into my casting ready to give a few pecks to some man unknown. A little nervous to be kissing a stranger without liquid courage, (judge yourself, not me) I surveyed the …

I've always loved nature and outdoors. I collected rocks for crying out loud! In fact, growing up, I'd always rush outside every chance I got. I …
I loooveeeeeee free things! Free coffee, free meals, free concert tickets--you name it! So when Jasmine Diane announced one last giveaway to Brunchin' with Jas I instantly became geeked. So, why did I desire to attend the fall Brunchin with Jas? Isn't it obvious? I saw this brunch as an opportunity to network with like-minded …
Mantra: I'm here. I'm safe. I'm calm. I will listen. In the age of countless self-help posts, books, and YouTube channels it's unlikely that you would be without said "help". Whether you're searching for ways to eat better, workout consistently, or just accept yourself for who you are--the content is there. After countless hours of …
A friend asked me what #quartercenturyliving means and why I always say it. At first I laughed, because I wasn't really sure. But as time passed and stories arose I figured it out. To sum it up, #quartercenturyliving for me and my friends is a way of not getting caught up in time-sensitive goals that …
