ABOUT ME

I grew up on a small farm outside of Fort Collins. I was raised by a couple of 'ol Deadheads and have one kick ass older brother. I moved to Gunnison in 2008 to attend Western State College and skied 60+ days that winter. I graduated cum laude with a degree in English. I studied abroad in Buenos Aires, Argentina two years ago and that experience absolutely changed my life. I can now conceptualize the amount of world and life there is to experience out there and I hope that I can tap into it to some degree or another. I live in a beautiful place but am excited for whatever adventures the future holds for me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking to Machu Picchu at 3 a.m. on a dark, cool, dreary Peruvian morning in May, being totally disappointed when the sun rose because the fog was so thick you couldn't see the city or any of the surrounding mountains, and then having the clouds break at 10 a.m. and being with such wonderful people to take it all in :)
