What I love about Galveston
In my free time, I love catching sunsets on the beach and grabbing dinner at The Rooftop Bar for the views. Their Tuna Tartare is absolutely to die for! You'll also find me at The Old Quarter Acoustic Cafe enjoying live music, one of my favorite local spots.

What I love about Galveston
In my free time, I love exploring the historic Strand District and enjoying fresh seafood at Shrimp 'N Stuff Downtown, especially their coconut shrimp that I'm totally addicted to! There's nothing quite like biking along the seawall and taking in those Gulf Coast views.
