CURRENT MISSION

to conquer the world

update: I spent the past ~2.5yrs working in pandemic response as a COVID epidemiologist in the US (and burned out hard) so now my current mission is to recover 😂 spending the next few months traveling, to rest and rejuvenate, and figure out my life / next adventure!

ABOUT ME

i live to laugh, learn, and love (and be loved!)

and,
i love: a lot of things. but most importantly: avocados, unexpected and capricious friendships, and a good book.
i do NOT love: insecurities, sisters who steal clothing, and reptiles. i also very much dislike the fact that i’m unable to find gobstoppers pretty much ANYWHERE outside the US (for shame!)

also, i play rugby. i enjoy it. chances are, i could take you.

PHILOSOPHY

i believe that the world is just filled with spectacular people, waiting to be discovered. i intend to discover them. all of them. so watch out, because you could be next.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

the original CS was amazing, and I had some of the most incredible experiences and connections of my life thanks to people in the CS community — even though the platform has devolved considerably over the years, I know my people are still out there and that there’s much amazingness yet to come!

音乐、电影和书籍

movies: always read the book first.

music: anything and everything. no, seriously. big fan of old jazz (ella fitzgerald, coltrane, dizzy, etc), classical (especially piano), hiphop and alternative (90s best), classic rock, even pop (love a good bop!) — whatever.

books: too many to list, but really anything by gabriel garcia marquez.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

the sun rises every day, and every day is a new day

教，学，和分享

what is that feeling when you're driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? —it's the too-huge world vaulting us, and it's good-bye. but we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies.
