How many swimsuits do you own ?
I always have a ton of swimsuits in my summer drawers but I’ve been slowly revamping my swimsuit collection with more interesting pieces so I would say its in a transition phase right now.
Your go-to Summer drink?
Frozen Margarita!

Your favorite rooftop bar in NYC?
My favorite rooftop in NYC is the Jimmy in Soho - the views of the freedom tower are so nice and then pool on the rooftop is beautiful!

Your dream vacation destination?
I would love to go to Paris or the Amalfi Coast in Italy.
What is your self-care routine?
I love cleaning my room, lighting a candle, and journaling or watching a tv show in bed :)
What is your favorite Summer memory?
Last summer was my first summer in NYC & I had such a blast exploring rooftops & summer themed restaurants. My favorite is Gitano on the edge of Tribeca/Soho. It’s a Tulum inspired restaurant with palm trees, sand, colorful flowers and such fun drinks.
