Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To find adventures in and despite the daily grind of being a grown up.
ABOUT ME
I am a news junkie, bleeding heart liberal who just decided to become a vegetarian. So, probably don't come to my apartment with a Sarah Palin bumper sticker. I like music, going to an off-beat bar and challenging my friends to think about an issue differently. I just quit a job I didn't love and jumped into grad school with both feet. I'm getting my M.Ed. and will be a high school teacher some day soon. If you want to keep me up all night chatting, share your views on educational philosophy!

People are good.

Music, Movies, and Books
Avett Brothers, Blitzen Trapper, Ben Folds, Andrew Bird and my guilty pleasure is Kayne. I am currently on a mission to read the BBC's 100 most important books. This is a slow moving process, but I just finished the Great Gatsby and am working on Catch 22. I don't watch a ton of movies, but I'll let me nerd slip out a little bit and admit that the most recent Star Trek movie is probably my current favorite.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have spent nearly a month (in 2 separate chunks) living in the Everglades - sleeping on a canoe, sleeping on beaches, swimming with dolphins. More than any other experience, this has probably shaped me the most.
Teach, Learn, Share
Gosh, I don't know. I can cook pretty good, but am always looking for people who are better than me.
