CURRENT MISSION

Finishing school and enjoying myself

ABOUT ME

I'm a student, working on a degree in Political Science and English. In my spare time I help bring topical speakers to campus and host the independent music show on my campus radio station. After my undergraduate work, I plan to relocate and attend graduate school, hopefully followed by employment of some kind. If you have any questions about me, ask!

I was on the National Mall for Barack Obama's inauguration, which was fun.
