I'm a recent graduate from the University of California, San Diego, gearing up for a two month backpacking trip in Chile and Argentina. I majored in ecology, and maybe I'll do something with that one day. In a couple of years I will go back to school to get a master's degree in something related to marine biology and GIS.

I am a runner, cyclist, and always down to adventure.
