CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world and learn as much as possible about it. Through culture, science, and interactions and dance!

ABOUT ME

I am a recent college Grad from Purdue University (Indiana). I am currently living in Zurich Switzerland. I live with my parents, brother, and our two dogs. I love to dance. Specifically hoop dance and spinning Poi. I also LOVE stones. I make wire wrapped jewelry and hemp jewelry. I am learning German, and es geht gut. I am also looking for a job with my Bachelor of Science in Biology degree! ;) I love to play with my two boxers, and be a bit creative.

So that was 5 years ago, since then, I have worked in Thailand teaching Biology to high school students (and volunteering to teach English at an orphanage on the weekends), I backpacked SEA for 2 months, I worked in the US for a bit (doing anything from Quality Control to working with intellectually disabled adults to serving overly expensive cake to the socioeconomic elite). My one dog passed away, but the other is still my baby (even though she is 9). I still hoop and LOVE connecting with others who like to flow. I go to as many concerts as possible (I LOVE LIVE MUSIC). And everything else is still true.
