About Me

ABOUT ME

I am a sociology and French major in California. I studied abroad in France for 6 months, going to school and learning about a culture, country and language I have always wanted to learn. I'm now back in Davis finishing up my studies and continuing to travel through the people I meet here. Family, friends, travel and learning are all important to me.

PHILOSOPHY

Hand me a plane ticket to anywhere and I will go.
