CURRENT MISSION

to learn and experience as much of the world as i possibly can in order to become a more compassionate and peaceful human being. a little lofty, i know... but i'm working on it poco a poco :)

ABOUT ME

I am just a baby in this world. There is so much that I have yet to experience and understand and I am grateful for every new opportunity that I stumble upon, regardless of how little or insignificant it might seem. I try to live my life with simplicity and appreciation and respect and a sense of adventure and a lack of plans, and generally this leads to thrilling and unimaginable results.

I am currently living in Boise, Idaho, working for the Idaho Hunger Relief Task Force for a food and anti-oppression policy fellowship. In February, I will move to DC for the final 6 months of the fellowship, then who knows where!

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to live a simple life. Figuring out how to handle my privilege. Always knowing that there's more to learn, discover and give. And truly enjoying every minute of it all :)

Trying to challenge systems of oppression. And learning and doing new things, but also learning to appreciate and value the things and people that I already have in my life.
