ABOUT ME

I finished my bachelors degree in '08, spent a year in Germany as an au pair, went back to MN for year to work at Habitat for Humanity and then I went back to Germany. I was living in Kassel/Witzenhausen for a while, working on my masters in International Food Business and Consumer Studies. I just finished writing my thesis about food waste in non-chain restaurants in Minneapolis. I work at a food co-op as the Bulk Replenisher, so I've got huge muscles ;)
I can sometimes be a bit shy, but once I get to know people then I can sometimes be a bit inappropriately open.
I am fascinated by learning about the processes involved in growing/producing the food we eat.I'm not religious.I like to stay busy.I love The Daily Show with Jon Stewart <3
