About Monica

Hi there!

In short I’m a certified Holistic Health Coach, blogger,  actress, and aspiring photographer (You can check out My Year Of Happiness project at http://monicanyla.tumblr.com/).

Bee Good Now came out of my desire to simply be a good person to myself, my community, and the world at large.. and to share any information I found helpful.

A few random facts about me:

* Graduated from Pepperdine University, Malibu where I studied Theater, Broadcast Journalism, Comparative Religions, and Philosophy

* Travel Enthusiast: I studied abroad in Heidelberg, Germany and London, performed in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland, and worked as a singer for a year in Japan… I also salivate when I’m in the travel sections of any bookstore

* Became vegan in March of 2009 after understudying Alicia Silverstone in the pre-Broadway run of “Time Stands Still” at the Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles.

Going back to my writing roots (after my dad kept saying “why don’t you start writing again?!”), I’m a contributer to Vegdaily.com, Ecorazzi.com, and Healthygirl.ca.

Oh, and I live in NYC with my (now vegan) boyfriend, Andreas, and our vegetarian dog, Kenya.
