About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Explore the word, find myself along the way
ABOUT ME
I've got a penchant for exploration and social entrepreneurship. I'm easygoing and adventurous, I love new experiences and people, and I'll eat any bizarre food you can throw at me (i.e. I've sampled live scorpion). I play the ukulele, enjoy creativity and an active lifestyle (soccer, kayaking, hiking etc.). I love music, dancing, hanging with good people, and--of course--traveling. I make the best pies and peanut-butter and jelly sandwiches. I'm looking for some great conversations, people, and adventures.
I work in social entrepreneurship, and am striving to find new and better ways to use business practices and principles to create social good (think Patagonia, TOMS etc.). If you have a great life story, I want to hear it--especially if it will make me laugh.
I am excited to start hosting once I return from my travels--so if you are a good person looking for a place to stay in San Francisco, my couch may be available in the near future. Looking forward to meeting some great friends to host while I'm abroad!
I've been fortunate to do some great traveling already, but am addicted and have got to do more--I have either traveled, studied, or briefly lived in Spain, China, Canada, Ecuador, Israel, Mexico, England, France, Switzerland, Italy and Morocco, Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, Cambodia, and the Caribbean.

I am quite knowledgeable about California, social entrepreneurship, international relations, and love to learn and teach, so I'm open to knowledge exchange
