About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel all over the world and try at least 1 beer and plate of local food from each location. I also want to have a greater understanding of the world outside of the United States and make friends from all over the world.

ABOUT ME

I am 24 years old and graduated from the University of California Santa Cruz where I received a degree in Film and Digital Media. Im back home with my parents in Orange County and am awaiting the next step of my life. Possibly the Peace Corps, Student Conservation Association, AmeriCorps or volunteer work anywhere I can find it. I hope to travel to as many places as possible. Next on my list is Argentina and South America but we'll see where i eventually decide to go.

PHILOSOPHY

grab life by the horns-live on the edge and don't be afraid of finding out who you are.
