CURRENT MISSION

exploring the 'scholarly' side of latin america

ABOUT ME

i'm a displaced texan from the middle of nowhere that somehow wound up loving big cities and latin america

i'm a travel addict and typically can't manage to stay in one place for more than 9 months at a time.

and now i find myself trying to put all of this into one academic / exploratory / fascinating melting pot

PHILOSOPHY

i believe that i have a moral obligation to use my knowledge and talents to improve the quality of life for those who need it the most... and that honesty is always the best answer.
