CURRENT MISSION

To infuse every moment of my life with meaning and substance, to wonder and express gratitude for every person whom I encounter, and to simply just have fun.

ABOUT ME

I'm an amalgam of many different interests. I dabble in Japanese, Korean, and French and I'm learning lots about online advertising. I also LOVE to travel- that's why I'm here.

PHILOSOPHY

"Frankly, I think it takes a little bit of being crazy to make a difference in this world.”
- Erin Brockovich

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crossed the river into Haiti from the Dominican Republic by kayak, visited some of the oldest Mughal mosques in Pakistan, sitting and chatting with friends by moonlight at St. Peter's Square in Rome, peering out of the car window and seeing the palm leaves and green landscape of Nigeria
