The little girl in this photo had no idea how many places life would take her, or how many versions of herself she would meet along the way. She would grow, change her mind, find her voice, make mistakes, start again, and learn that becoming is never really finished.

 

My twenties gave me stories I couldn’t have planned: new places, hard lessons, big wins, and people who made ordinary days feel unforgettable. Some of you have known me through several chapters. Others came along later and somehow feel like you’ve always been here. I’m grateful for every version of me that brought me to this one, and for everyone who helped me get here.

 

Now I’m turning thirty, and I want to begin this decade surrounded by people I love. So we’re going to Thailand—to celebrate where I’ve been, who I’m becoming, and all the fun still ahead. 🍾
