Mingling, traveling, collecting historic pieces

I love the thrill of mingling with new people and exploring different ways of life, especially around the DMV region. There’s something beautiful about being in a bustling metropolis and suddenly being surrounded by farmland—the historic charm of the towns, the vibrant energy of the cities, and the timeless beauty of my home city, DC. Whether it's a mom and pop shop filled with antique treasures or a Smithsonian museum downtown brimming with history, you can find me fascinated over the pieces on display. Collecting historical pieces has become a passion of mine, each item telling a story that adds depth to my journey.
