CURRENT MISSION

The unexpected. Or finding the best Hummus in Jerusalem

ABOUT ME

I enjoy learning. I'm curious about people, culture, food, music, funky art and politics. I'm currently researching/working at the Jerusalem Botanical Gardens at The Hebrew University. I've been working with plants in an educational environment for a few years. I enjoying connect people with the natural world. This is my first time living outside the United States, and it has been an adventure.

I'm typical a relaxed, quite person, but I love to experience new situations and meet new people. It's a big world. I like to see what's going on outside of the Eastern U.S.

PHILOSOPHY

Live deliberately and slow down.
