CURRENT MISSION

I want to meet as many people as I can with diverse backgrounds and ideas. I would love to be spontaneous and see where life takes me :)

ABOUT ME

I am a 20 year old soon to be college Junior from Texas. I participate in Model United Nations and this year I have traveled to Chicago and New York City for conference. For JanTerm classes, I took a month long immersion course in Moroccan Arabic. I was based out of Rabat and lived with the most wonderful host family; I think about my time there daily and miss it immensely. In September 2011 I will be headed to Paris for the semester where I hope to meet many new and exciting people and improve my language skills! I love listening to chill music and spending time with friends. I'm an easygoing person looking to make the most out of life and my time abroad.

PHILOSOPHY

I know that I have a purpose to do good in this world, and believe change starts with one person. Be the change.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen many beautiful places and met many amazing people, but it always makes me happy to donate blood. Such a simple, small act can save a life :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Well lets see, I can juggle, I can weld steel, do a kartwheel, I can cast plaster, frame a house, fold an origami crane, and give pretty spectacular hugs.
