About Me

I’m a multidisciplinary millennial and bonafide badass (who occasionally struggles with imposter syndrome).  I was born and raised in Cyprus, and I have moved across continents a few times. As a Mediterranean boss-lady, I make it in the world while fighting for positive change. I built this blog while teaching myself to code. The blog’s theme stems from my interest in activism, photography, sustainability and travel.

Politicised at a Young Age

Since I grew up in a highly politicised region, I intimately understand geopolitics. I’ve been a news enthusiast since I was 6 years old. As a child, I would share sections of the newspaper with my parents at the breakfast table. After all, being informed is a civic duty. At the same age, I participated in my first presidential campaign – stuffing mailers in envelopes and mingling with activists.

Activism in San Francisco

As an activist in college, I dreamed of creating a community that gave hope to and empowered people to be changemakers in their communities. To that end, I helped resurrect the Experimental College at San Francisco State University. The Experimental College enabled students to create their own curriculum. Students taught each other courses while earning credit.

As a Board Member of the San Francisco Freedom School, I was fortunate enough to learn about movement building from veterans of the Southern Freedom Movement (later known as the Civil Rights Movement).

Professional Life

I also have professional working experience in local government in the San Francisco Bay Area. In every working environment I’ve been in, I’ve enjoyed uniting people to change these spaces for the better. With a background in both local government and community activism; I use my varied skillset to continuously grow and educate myself.

Real Talk

In my spare time, I love photography, travelling, listening to music, collecting books and records and practising my skills in mixology. I can also kick ass in scrabble. And of course, who doesn’t enjoy the guilty pleasure of a good show?

Fighting for a Better Tomorrow

I’m a voracious reader who loves to expand my horizons and dream bigger. Through self-study, I have become an ardent environmentalist who believes in our abilities to pursue a more sustainable life. We can preserve the planet we have by fighting for each other and those yet to come.

As a female millennial, I think that each woman who shares her experience is quietly revolting against a system that continues to oppress us. Given my interests, this blog seems like a natural progression.

I participate in sustainability projects and efforts to fight climate change. If you have a project that can use my skillset, please get in touch!
