About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Take advantage of all of the opportunities I have now to see and learn new things

ABOUT ME

I love to dance, rock climb, play soccer, and cook. I love getting to practice my Spanish and am an avid Bachata dancer...that is if I could ever really figure out how to move my hips correctly.

When I visit a new place my favorite way of traveling is just to wander down the streets meeting locals and getting a feel of the culture. No plan, no stress, lots of new experiences.

In June I quit my job and hopped on a 1-way flight to Thailand. My plan is to travel/work in SE Asia for potentially a year but I have not planned much more than that. I am not sure what I want to do with my life so I want to try odd jobs and try some new things.

I'm excited as well as nervous for all of the experiences that are yet to come!

PHILOSOPHY

Interests

I love to dance, rock climb, play soccer, cook, hike, explore new food and cultures, learn languages, and am loving learning how to use my new camera and sketching.
