CURRENT MISSION

Resettle Refugees

ABOUT ME

I am a second year Jesuit Volunteer living in Portland, OR. Last year, I lived in Boise, ID working with refugees as a Jesuit Volunteer. This year, I'm at a resettlement agency in Portland, still as a JV.
I love good conversation, books, coffee and beer. Anything Eastern European can hold my attention for hours, but I am passionate about politics and world events in general.
Currently, I live with 7 people in community and we are all doing a year in service at various non-profits in Portland. I am looking to make friends outside of my community and to be able to explore more of Portland.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Sunset outside of Krakow, PL after a volcanic eruption in Russia that created purple clouds. Watching a statue made of wood and hay that was burned down in the square of Stary Sacz, Poland. Spending two nights in the campo of El Salvador with a family who survived the civil war.
