CURRENT MISSION Eat at a Dunkin Doughnuts in every country. In the world. ABOUT ME Novice Traveler, cultural sponge, bizarre food enthusiast, and a professional scrambled eggs maker. I'm a sociology major and looking to expand my world view and embrace all forms of existence. No experience is too small or too trivial to change a perception. PHILOSOPHY "I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul" -William Earnest Henley Life is what we make it, and the meaning of life is to make one for yourself. I'm all about living life to the fullest with all the charisma and enthusiasm existing deserves!

Music, Movies, and Books
The Grapes of Wrath is my favorite book, hands down. I also love any book with a good "stream of consciousness" -- The Stranger (Camus), The Sound and the Fury (Faulker), and To the Lighthouse (Woolf)

Eating Steak Tartare Surviving Steak Tartare
Teach, Learn, Share
I can tell you where the best burrito place is in Minneapolis, Philadelphia, and Baltimore. Being a sociology major, I love a good conversation on how people operate and shape their understandings of life. I can also teach you how to make a tater-tot hotdish à la Minnesota.
My Interests
Learning, eating, living, acting, and reading any book written by William Faulkner I love speaking French, hate learning it! I'm not the best cook but I do love learning (or even just watching) people make food.
