Membro dal 2016
I'm a recent graduate of the University of South Carolina with a degree in International Relations and Global Studies, focusing in on Sustainable Development, Latin American Studies and Spanish. Decided to switch things up a bit, and I've been working as a Field Instructor for an adolescent wilderness therapy program in Western North Carolina, which has been a life changing and rewarding experience. This challenging and dynamic opportunity has pushed major growth in both my personal and professional realms, and I hope to pursue a Masters in Social Work in the near future to become a Clinical Social Worker. I'm an independent gal who loves to travel, help others, and learn from others as much as possible while doing those things. I feel most at home when I'm outdoors, whether it's hiking, whitewater kayaking, skiing, motorbiking, or just laying in the grass and taking it all in.
