I'm a college student in Oklahoma, working at Sequoia National Park for the Summer.

Currently learning to cope with premature balding.

I REALLY love memoirs. When Breath Becomes Air, (anything) Maya Angelou or David Sedaris, Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates, and James Baldwin.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have climbed the domes in London, Rome and Florence at St. Paul's Cathedral, St. Peter's Basilica, and St. Mary of the Flower Cathedral, respectively. Each one was so unique and wonderful and done alone, which was not easy to do as I was with 40 other students on Study Abroad.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have no idea what this section means.

I do not have many skills, I apologize. I do like to read and explore and I am fairly easy-going. Maybe I can teach you these things.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Short Bread cookies and Harry Potter trivia.

Austria, Brazil, England, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Slovakia, Switzerland
