CURRENT MISSION

experience Albania, help where I can, grow in the process

ABOUT ME

I'm currently serving with the Peace Corps in a small town in Albania, where I teach in the schools and try to become a part of the community. I love/hate having friends all over the world because I know that I can travel and visit them wherever they are but in the meantime you feel their absence. I think the best things in life are shared. I think music, food, and travel are some of the best ways to bring people together.

PHILOSOPHY

I am because God willed that I should exist; I exist because God is Love; I live for God, who is Love.
