CURRENT MISSION

To collective as many new experiences as possible before it's too late!

ABOUT ME

I graduated from Saint John's University, a small liberal arts college in Central Minnesota, with a Bachelor's Degree in Biology and a minor in Peace Studies. I am currently teaching middle school science in Phoenix, AZ as part of a two year mission with Teach for America.

PHILOSOPHY

I am liberal minded. I care about the planet, hate violence, and believe that all children deserve an equal opportunity.
