About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To expand my mind, open my heart, make friends, visit family

ABOUT ME

I'm 24 years old, living in London, England, though I just recently moved here from Denton, TX. My immediate family are the only relatives I have in America, everyone else is located all over the world, in places including Australia, S. Africa, Portugal, England, and Scotland. I've been in school full time for the last 5 years, and haven't got to visit them at all. This summer I finally graduated, and had the opportunity to visit my family and backpack Europe. I spent six weeks travelling, and now am living in London. I will be here for a few more months, and then I'm heading back to America to continue my education and get a doctorate in physical therapy.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to live my dreams. I believe that as long as you know what you want in life you can have it. I keep a positive attitude in all that I do, I welcome change and am always seeking to grow, learn, and evolve.

Interests

I love anything involving the outdoors and nature. Put me outside and I am happy :)

I love going to new places, meeting new people, and trying new things. I have traveled all my life, and love experiencing as many things as I possibly can.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have met the queen mother of England, and Princess Anne. I have lived in three different continents. I quit smoking cigarettes after 7 years of doing it, and have graduated college and ran a half marathon.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am personal trainer certified, so I have knowledge in health and fitness. I also have over four years experience in physical therapy.

I would love to learn how to cook food from a variety of cultures. I would also love to learn common words and phrases in different languages.
