About Me

CURRENT MISSION

traveling throughout Europe with two of my best friends in June!

ABOUT ME

Right now I'm in school and have work but when I get the chance I try and travel whether it be close to home or far away. In my free time I also go to concerts, hang with friends, party, relax, and enjoy life. I'm passionate about the environment and what us humans can do to create as little impact on the earth as possible. I've been learning Italian for the past 2 years now and used to take Spanish, although it's probably a little rough now that I haven't taken it in so long. I'd love to improve on these languages so if you know them please speak to me in them!

Music, Movies, and Books

As far as movies go I love all kinds, from documentaries to horror to comedy! A few of my favorites are Momento, Se7en, Dumb & Dumber (classic), the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Blood Diamond, Moulin Rouge, and Dodgeball.

I am constantly listening to music. I pretty much like all genres: rap, hiphop, alternative, reggae, the oldies, techno.. slow, fast, you name it. Some artists/bands I really love are Florence + the Machine, Dom Kennedy, J. Cole, Mumford & Sons, The Weeknd, Neko Case, Kanye, Beyonce, Bob Marley, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, Bob Dylan, The Shins, Coldplay, Kendrick Lamar, Big K.R.I.T., Floetry, Bon Iver, Jay Z, Adele, Polica, The Beatles, Outkast, Passion Pit, and many more! And I am definitely open to new stuff, if you play it chances are I'll enjoy it.

I'm not a big reader because I'm pretty busy with school and work, but when I can I try to read some. A few of my favorite books I've read have been By Night in Chile, 1984, and Catch 22.
