About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Speed on!

ABOUT ME

I grew in the Great City of Chicago. I went to university in Chicago, where I studied history, specifically the French and American Revolutions. I've worked in Haiti twice with a volunteer organization, and this year I moved to France to work as a language assistant.

Interests

I like to travel and to talk with new people. I enjoy studying languages. I love music, and frequent the open air festivals in Chicago. I play some guitar, but I am not very good. It's just for fun. I try to read as often as possible, and I enjoy most literary genres. I like to read in foreign languages as well. Right now I'm slowwwwwly working on Cien años de solidad.
