San Francisco, California
I'm an intern here.
I'm a graduating senior at San Francisco State, majoring in magazine journalism.
When I'm not writing, I'm usually at concerts, searching the web for more music, eating the spiciest food, reading (I'm part of a bookclub) or failing to start a music blog.
