About Me

CURRENT MISSION

meet new people to better understand how different perspectives of the world

ABOUT ME

many of my friends would call me a fun an exciting person. I enjoy meeting new people and seeing new places. I love eating good food and everything that goes along with it; weather it be great conversation over the table, or music shared by others. I like to travel when I get the chance. I have traveled across Latin America and through Europe. I just finished my undergraduate degree in economics and have now decided to try my hand at traveling across Asia.

PHILOSOPHY
I believe that it is important to talk to people from around the world in order to attain a better understanding of how people think. This is important for the global society we are quickly becoming.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

During my stay in Guanajuato Mexico I had just come back from a night in the city with my friends and was going to my room when my room mate asked if I wanted to share a drink with him on the roof. At that time I was living with a family of doctors who had a fair sized house located half way up one of the mountain sides overlooking the city. As we sat up there talking we gazed upon the breath taking night time view of the city. The cool breeze rolling off the mountains and the beautiful music from the Callejoneadas that played throughout the city brought me to fall in love with the city. This was one of the most spectacular thing I've ever seen and I have wanted to return to that city ever since.
