About Me

ABOUT ME

Affectionately known as Crazy Carrie, this Alaskan wild child mastered the arts of salmon wrestling and polar bear wrangling from a young age. On a typical day, one might see her slacklining with friends, waxing philosophic, planning her next outdoor escapade, or studying osmolytes. Her greatest fear involves temperatures above 80F.

PHILOSOPHY

Achieving life is not the equivalent of avoiding death.
-Ayn Rand
