About Me
CURRENT MISSION
keepin' it real...and what the f*** am I going to do when I graduate?!?
ABOUT ME
Love camping, hiking, traveling, nature in general. I study conservation biology, healthcare policy, and Spanish and am very interested in sustainable development. I play rugby for Harvard College; this is absolutely my favorite activity. I adore dancing and partying and am very familiar with Boston nightlife. I love to meet new people and would particularly enjoy practicing my Spanish!
PHILOSOPHY
"Orthodoxy means not thinking- not needing to think. Orthodoxy is unconsciousness." -1984
"Love the earth and the sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to everyone who asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and mothers of families, read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life, re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency not only in its words but in the silent lines of its lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes and in every motion and joint of your body..."
-Walt Whitman

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Studied abroad in Borneo, coolest yet most sobering experience of my entire life. I snorkeled with sea snakes, climbed a mountain of over 14,000 feet, and watched lots of trees being chopped down.
Teach, Learn, Share
Earth is beautiful.
Earth is complex.
Earth is fragile.
Earth is a delicate, interdependent web of ecosystems that provides the basis for all life forms.
Constantly reconfiguring, morphing, decaying, the natural world is at once confounding, sublime, brutal, and unspeakably elegant.
