I'm from a perfectly dreamy little town in Northern Michigan, but have been calling Penang Malaysia home since October of 2017. By profession I'm a social worker, though I'm now pursuing a MBA. I've often accompanied my professional work with an additional gig as a bartender or barista. By passion I explore city and wilderness alike; I'm always keen to indulge my curiosities by traveling on foot, but hitchhiking, a bus, a train, a boat, or a plane, will also suffice. I'm an introvert with great social skills, a brave sense of adventure, and a deep appreciation for coffee. I eat healthily (including vegetarianism), and am often listening to NPR podcasts.
