CURRENT MISSION

To travel and learn - simple as that.

ABOUT ME

Born and raised in Wroclaw, Poland. At 18, I moved to Minnesota, U.S. where I have lived for 5 years. In May 2009, I graduated from College of Saint Benedict/St. John's University with a Management major. Currently, I'm in my last year of Master's program in International Business at St. Mary's University of Minnesota.

Just moved back to Poland. Worked in Warsaw for a bit, traveled here and there. Looking for exciting opportunities and thrilling adventures.
