CURRENT MISSION

TOUCH EVERY CONTINENT!! Live outside the American Box. Experience a day in someone else's shoes on the other side of the world. See the world while I'm still young, have all my limbs, and a mind that has not been completely brain-washed!

ABOUT ME

Born and raised in a smallish town in NW Arizona, USA. Got my Bachelor's Degree at UNC in Greeley, CO which might have been some of the best moments of my life. I'm extremely active, with my interests ranging from snowboarding to hiking, the gym to my road bike (just got it!! my new love!!). I was a competitive swimmer for 13 seasons....did the butterfly, I guess I was forced to love it. :) I love to cook, to try new recipes, especially healthy ones, but I'm also a sucker for a giant bag of potato chips and a delicious beer. The "travel bug" within me was unleashed when I studied abroad in New Zealand my junior year of undergrad. Since I have been in school my entire life (all 23 years of it!) I try to travel during my breaks and when I can scrounge up some money to actually do it. I'm currently living in Portland, OR, attending OHSU and am just finishing up my 2nd year of dental school, with 2 more years to go. I'm driven to see as much of the world as possible before my life gets too serious and I can't exactly abandon my patients to go travel for a month. ;) I love music, I love hearing people's life stories, and love a new adventure.
