Hi! Thanks for visiting my profile! Let's see... about me: I grew up in Los Angeles, California, and got my bachelor's degree in psychology from Pitzer College in Claremont, California. I became passionate about psychology because it offers insight into how people construct meaning and challenges me to see the world through others' perspectives. When I began to travel after college, I came to discover that traveling, in a different way, offers similar insight. Now I can't stop!
