CURRENT MISSION

To be inspired and motivated by the world around me

ABOUT ME

I love traveling and experiencing new things. I love camping, hiking, and spending time laying in the green grass, soaking up the sun. I love music and art. I love good food and even better conversation. (Apparently I love a lot of things). I'm pretty laid back. I like laughing. And buffalo.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life up to my own expectations. I allow others to do the same.

I love my life- every single aspect of it. I believe that knowing who you are and what you love is one of the greatest accomplishments a person can achieve in their lifetime. I feel like one of the luckiest people I have ever known because I have been able to figure those things out for myself.

I also believe that laughter really can cure mostly anything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a two-month field study across America during my sophomore year of college. We camped in over 30 National/State parks and learned everything about where we went. 14,000 mile roadtrip with new friends who turned into family. It was the best two months of my life.

A year later, I embarked to New Zealand to study abroad for a semester. While I am still currently in New Zealand, I can tell you already: this is one of the best experiences of my entire life. The places I have seen, and more importantly, the loving, genuine, and all-around hilarious people I have met have made this experience one of my greatest.
