About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn as much as I can-about myself and the world

ABOUT ME

I'm always planning my next adventure! I took a gap year between high school and college where myself and my best friend traveled over 25 countries in Europe and did some couchsurfing/woofing along the way. Then in college I studies abroad in Edinburgh for a semester with some extra travel after exams. I'm a student of sustainable community development and hoping to get into a career of product sustainability, corporate social responsibility, or renewable energies. I love traveling and learning about sustainability and social systems in other countries.

In other areas, I love music (I play piano, and some guitar and ukulele) dancing, coffee, traveling and meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in world education. The conventional public school system (at least here in America) is outdated and inapplicable to our currents needs. We need understanding of each other and problem-solving skills in order to live here. My hope is to leave this earth having changed it in some way and fill my life with learning-mostly by traveling. Other cultures fascinate me, and if we are going to live here for as long as we wish to, we must work together to keep ourselves and our earth healthy.
