CURRENT MISSION

Attempting a trans-american road trip with my boyfriend!

ABOUT ME

If you're turned off by my lack of references and/or CS experience, add me on facebook and check me out :)
I'm pretty outgoing, a big foodie, and I love photography and thrifting and crafting and drinking grasshoppers. I recently got back from a year in China teaching English.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything in moderation.
