CURRENT MISSION

to wake up every day with something to look forward to, to be surrounded by good people, and to be free

ABOUT ME

I grew up in a suburb of Philadelphia called Holland. I lived in the same house my entire life until going to college in South Carolina, and since then, I can't seem to settle down for more than a couple months. I definitely developed an intense fear of long-term commitment. For two of the summers I was in college, I worked on a dude ranch in Colorado with one of my brothers. I did some incredible things while out west, learned a lot, including how to ride a horse, and met some spectacular people. I graduated from USC in May '08, and moved to Philly in September. I am currently working at a fairtrade cafe called Mugshots. I love to try new things, and right now, I am trying to figure out what I want to do with the rest of my life. Nursing is currently at the top of my list. Suggestions are encouraged! I love to laugh, and I love to dance (although I'm not very good). If you like doing either of those things, then you'll be happy with me.

PHILOSOPHY

Keep an open mind! You will never know if something will be the experience of a lifetime until you do it.
