Favorite concert experience

My favorite concert experience will forever be the 2019 Just Like Heaven festival in Long Beach, California. As soon as I saw the lineup, I knew I had to be there by any means. I had the chance to see MGMT, Phoenix, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Passion Pit, Washed Out, Tennis, and so many artists that I grew up listening to (and even made it backstage for my all-time favorite, MGMT.) The entire festival was such a surreal experience and being able to share those memories with my mom makes it even more special.

Hobbies / Interests / Fun Facts / Campus Involvement

In my free time, I love to consume media in any form — whether it be music, film, or literature. It may be my Capricorn moon speaking, but I am also lucky to say that I love the work I do. I work at a flower shop, which I deeply enjoy as I adore anything related to nature (besides camping.) Being as obsessed with espresso as I am, it’s fitting that I am also a barista. Other than that, I love to enjoy time with friends and family, especially when I’m able to do it at live shows!
