ABOUT ME
I was born and raised in San Francisco, CA. It's safe to say this could be one of the best places in the world to be born and raised. You are surrounded by endless restaurants, interesting museums, bookstores, galleries, parks, beaches and lots of eccentric characters.
For a change I decided to go to college in Seattle and explore a new city. I studied Drama and now that I have my degree I'm trying to pursue small theatre projects on the side.
I had the wonderful opportunity to study abroad during my college experience in London. Here began our love affair. Well I'm not sure if it's requited, but I sure love it! I knew that I had to find an opportunity to experience it all again. This is why I decided to do a working holiday in London after I graduated from college. I've just returned to Seattle and I'm always planning my next adventure in my head...
PHILOSOPHY
My goal in life is to put myself out there in the world as much as possible. The more that you put yourself out there, the more you have to gain. I'm always challening myself, especially through travel, and I love meeting and connecting with like-minded people. Meeting new people is one of the most enriching parts of travel for me. I believe that you make your own opportunities, which is what I'm trying to do right now with my two main interests--theatre and travel.
I realize there is SO MUCH I don't know, and that's why I want to get out there and figure that out.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
After I graduated from college, I moved to London with no job and no place to live while participating on a work abroad program. While most people who have travelled a lot may not consider it that daring, I know it was a bold move to leave my friends and comfort zone behind for something I will remember forever. As they say- "The journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step."
Some remarkable things I've seen that have made an impression...
-The Nicaraguan rainforest from a zipcord line
-Continent of Africa from the Rock of Gibraltar
-The Cliffs of Moher
-Giant's Causeway
-Beaches of Normandy
-London completely empty on Christmas Day
The list could go on...
