I was born and raised in Southern California. For three decades I have called this place home. I grew up in San Gabriel, graduated from UCLA, worked at Central Library, and have spent my entire lifetime scouring this city for unforgettable experiences. These are my favorite places in Los Angeles. See the List.
There are no greater elements that I seek more than truth and beauty, commonly intertwined but frequently at odds. This space aims to share a collection that reflects my insatiable appetite for life. Leisure is a priority. Internationalism is the mindset. These stories reflect curiosity and the acquisition of knowledge to better understand the capacity of human creativity.

Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.
