CURRENT MISSION

To meet new people, reframe and improve my beliefs, and obtain knowledge

ABOUT ME

I am from California and studied at UCSB for undergrad. I just finished my tenure at environmental nonprofit that worked on protecting parks and open space. I last visited Europe for a semester abroad at Lund University in Sweden and traveled extensively.

PHILOSOPHY

What helps me wake up each morning? Knowing that there is so much work to be done to improve the quality of human lives here on earth by giving back to those who are less fortunate. I'm an open-minded person; let's talk about music, philosophy, politics, religion, movies, culture--I'm excited to hear about what inspires you.
