CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to live and be free; to let loose of the strings that hold me tight.

ABOUT ME

I have a thirst for adventure and passion for newness. I'm 24 and was born and raised in Texas, but I have family from Chicago to Glasgow. I study economics with a concentration on development economics. Part of my pursuit of happiness is to travel across the world to help boost rural areas out of their poverty traps. I love meeting new and interesting people and I also enjoy the occasional beer. Although I am currently in a small town in Texas, this upcoming August I will either be living in NYC or D.C. so I will be much better positioned to host future couchsurfers. If there is anything else you would like to know, feel free to contact me!
