CURRENT MISSION

Meet as many different kinds of people and experience as many new things as I possibly can.

ABOUT ME

I love being lost in new places and meeting new people. I'm always looking for an excuse to get out of town. I lived in Columbus, Ohio for the first 22 years of my life. I spent 4 months in 2013 living in South America, (Chile, primarily) and I moved to Boston, Massachusetts after graduating from my university. Winter in Boston was rough, and I didn’t feel ready to embark on a career path just yet, so the obivous solution was to move to Spain. I lived and worked in Madrid while taking advantage of any travel opportunities that presented themselves. After a year in Europe I moved to Philadelphia, where I currently work for a large non-profit org.

PHILOSOPHY

A comfort zone is a really beautiful place where nothing gets done.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sledding down the side of a volcano and horseback riding through the mountains and the jungle in Nicaragua.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to practice English or Spanish, and I'd love to learn a little bit of your language! I'm also always eager to discuss and learn about how the education system and social services function in other countries. I enjoy any kind of outdoor activity, and have recently been dabbling in yoga.
