CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I love my friends, my family, my cat and going on adventures. I am deeply committed to social justice initiatives, but I think it's very important to never take yourself too seriously and to always have a sense of humor. I love meeting new people and experiencing new things and always try to maintain a sense of wonder about the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Find beauty and wonder in all moments.

Interests

I love yoga and eastern philosophies, and also plan to get back into karate when I move back home for my new job in a couple months. I write poetry occasionally, but I read and listen to much more than I write.

• cats
• poetry
• beauty
• yoga
• knitting
• study abroad

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite movie of all time is Donnie Darko.

My favorite books of all time are the Harry Potter books, I've read them more times than I can count and I feel like the characters are childhood friends.

I also love everything by Francesca Lia Block, she has a way of writing that makes the world we live in seem like a magical place.

I love Bukowski's poems, and everything by the beat generation. I also love e.e. cummings.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last June I traveled to Chiapas for a study abroad program and stayed in a Zapatista cultural center for several weeks. It was amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm really good at knitting and am happy to teach and knit with people! Knitting is a great way to bond. I have also been learning a lot about Ashtanga Yoga and love practicing with other people.
