About Me

Hello CS community! I'm originally from Michigan- served in the peace corps for two years in Eswatini and got to travel around for a bit after. Recently my past two years have been spent in Denver getting my masters. I now have a job as a wilderness therapist working with teens and young adults! Very passionate about clean eating, meditation & yoga.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungie jumped 211 meters next to Victoria Falls, learned to surf in Australia, white water rafting in Canada while the sun was shining and it was pouring hail!

Teach, Learn, Share

I've lived in rural Swaziland (Eswatini) for 2.5 years, traveled south east asia for four months many stories to share from around the world, and people so different from myself!
