It has been a gnarly year. I spent two hours going through my camera roll from the whole year and so much blew my mind. There was so much stress & anxiety & sadness & even versions of grief and loss that happened for me this year.

Initially, I wanted to share a lot of that because I always want to portray the reality of life and how as much as this might be a highlight real, it’s also real life. 

But as I started sifting through all the photos I wanted to share, they were just so many more positive ones. 

This year was a lot of me being alone and trying new things and really just doing things on my own, but this year also brought me new friends, two of my cousins getting married, a goddaughter, my first niece, and a ton of quality time spent with my parents and my grandmother. Time I cherish and do not take for granted ❤️

2025 was A LOT. A lot of good, a lot of mistakes, and a shit ton of learning. 

And one of the craziest things - if I’m honest- is looking back at videos and photos of me from the beginning of the year and seeing how much I’ve changed physically. (& obv I’m proud of that.) 

Here’s to learning from it, growing, and a kickass 2026 🎉
