Born in Seattle, the first half of my life has been spent in the PNW. After moving to Mississippi at a young age, the culture shock piqued my interest in sharing experiences and understanding with people from different walks of life. I've spent most of my monetary career in the restaurant industry, both as a cook and manager. I periodically get a need to travel, and I'm currently in that state before I return to college in the spring. Writing is my passion, and I couldn't think of a better form of inspiration than the world and folks around me. I intend to go back for journalism, with politics being a heavy interest of mine. I can be quiet at first, but warm up quickly. I feel the most important part of experiencing life with others is to be respectful and understanding of their boundaries and convictions. I would be honored to be a guest in your home!
