CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm Texas born and raised but was looking for a big adventure. For university I decided to run off and explore Abu Dhabi! I love meeting new people while I study at school. I never had a passport before I applied to my university abroad, and now I'm soaking in all of the opportunities to travel and learn! I spent my last semester in Buenos Aires, Argentina and am currently in Madrid, Spain working on my Spanish!

I am a Social Research and Public Policy major and Theater Minor studying in Abu Dhabi, UAE. I love the social sciences and arts and am always interested in learning more about anything. Some of my favorite artists are Cindy Sherman, Everitte, and Cristo and Jeanne Claude.

I have a bucket list written 4 years ago that I'm checking off item by item. I always carry it with me on my travels and am hoping to finish everything on the list!

PHILOSOPHY

Live, let live, and eat good food!
