CURRENT MISSION

To find the world's best vegan chick'n alfredo.

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Amanda! I was born in LA, raised in the Bay, and have been in Brooklyn since 2015. I'm a longtime vegan, non-partier, and quite enjoy meeting new people. For work, I sell renewable energy and take photos of people. I also sometimes write about music and can often be found at a concert or other type of live performance (my favorite venues include The Fillmore in SF and Webster Hall here in NYC). I'm also fully vaccinated + double boosted and mask up in most public indoor settings.

Places I'd love to visit include:

- Columbus, OH
- Indianapolis, IN
- Chicago, IL
- Detroit, MI
- Dublin
- Belfast
- Edinburgh
- Glasgow
- Cardiff
- Brussels
- Helsinki

I'm definitely a quality over quantity type of person!
