College student at the University of Washington in Seattle Washington. Questioning the world around me, the systems that regulate my life, and the lives of those around me. Unsure of how such a broken world can at the same time continue to function and allow so many different people to make a life. Looking to travel to challenge myself to see how what I've learned isn't the only way. There is so much more to life than what the US has given me.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Went to Mexico City, Mexico for a program looking at the impact of culture on the LGBT community and activism. Best part of the program was sharing space with our local partners, and getting to to know them as both the passionate activists they are, and as humans with such beautifully unique and fun lives, given all that they deal with trying to make their communities better for everyone.
