At certain points in life, I firmly believe you must stop and ask yourself how you can level up. Health-wise, career-wise, relationship-wise, and otherwise, the beauty of life is that it gives us the opportunity to proactively grow each day if we recognize and pursue the opportunities to do so. An important stepping stone in…
I love being a waste person. No–really. I enjoy that wonderful feeling of coming home, taking off all my makeup and accessories, and hitting the couch just to put my feet up and watch YouTube videos as my popcorn pops in the microwave. I do genuinely believe that indulging doesn’t have to mean downing a…
This is a sponsored post by Fairmont Chicago Millenium Park, but all reviews and opinions expressed in this post are my personal view. Chicago was a place that reminded me a great deal of both my homes. On the one hand—the city was reminiscent of Boston, where I stayed for the past three years as…
Hearing from individuals who have fearlessly embarked on paths that may seem unconventional to our cookie-cutter mindsets always helps, and here’s why: Often times, we need an extra vote of confidence and some reassurance to propel us forward in the direction our hearts have been yearning for.

In my attempt to be as non-touristy as possible in my own city, I somehow managed to find myself on Melrose Ave–AKA the street in LA that has the ultra insta-famous pink wall that hundreds of visitors stop at daily to pose and/or put on their perfect pout. As I walked past, I asked myself,…
From nights spent in the Prudential Center chomping away at Wagamama and Eataly enjoying whilst shooting for the blog, to 5:00 AM weekday mornings spent responding to emails and taking calls in regards to brand deals and negotiations, and weekends that should’ve been spent partying away but instead saw me cramming for exams, polishing presentations,…
Over the years, my definition of the word “fitness” has certainly evolved. Having grown up pretty active (I was an Indian Classical Dancer), I didn’t necessarily have a “daily fitness routine,” but as soon as I stopped dancing, there was a void in my life–I felt empty somehow.
