ABOUT ME

Spent the last three years living in Japan and traveling around Asia. I was an editor for a nuclear nonproliferation organization in Hiroshima and then taught English for a while. For the last 4 months I have been traveling around Asia, Europe, a bit of Africa and now the Middle East. It has been an amazing experience and something I'll never forget. Originally, I'm from Chicago.
