About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel AND not bomb all of my classes! At the same time!

ABOUT ME

Student. Nerd. If you mention art conservation I will talk your ear off for the next hour. The same goes for the State of Maine. And Boston. I'll probably be a crazy cat lady later in life. I like to walk up stairs for fun.

PHILOSOPHY

Be kind. Say yes to travel. You leave home to find home, even if that home is the place you left. Take calculated risks- go out on a limb but don't be stupid about it. Education is important. Call your family every once in a while.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did the dome climb at Florence Cathedral one really early June morning when there was no one else there (except for my friend). It was the most magical thing I've ever done.

I'm a pro at public transportation? I don't really know what to write here, but if you need help figuring out how to get from A to B, I'm your girl.
