Hobbies

I am an artistic individual who spends a lot of time with creative work. I make my music and write my own songs, as I also spend most of my time learning about skincare and makeup since I've always been involved with it and have a huge passion for the activity.

I enjoy to be out of my house so I always like to be on the move, whether that's a day to myself, running errands or going straight to work at my other job. I always like to be busy with everything I do.
