CURRENT MISSION

To explore, wander and learn.

ABOUT ME

I graduated from University of Iowa in the USA with my BFA in studio art. I am 23, from the United States and English is my first language. l am learning Spanish as well. I am currently living in Madrid, Spain teaching English. I love meeting new people, and learning about new cultures and lifestyles, exchanging ideas and perceptions of the world through conversation and art.

PHILOSOPHY

Someone wise once told me to make the most of life because you can only be sure that you have this one. I feel blessed to be able to say that if I didn't have a day left I would be pleased with the way I have spent many of mine. I have been fortunate to see and experience more than many do in a lifetime. The best way I have found to live is making the most of each day. You never know what may pass tomorrow.
