CURRENT MISSION

Find beauty in the unexpected places!

ABOUT ME

What occupies most of my time is playing the clarinet. I currently study at the Manhattan School of Music in New York City. My favorite thing in the world is traveling. I am spontaneous and laid back. I love languages, meeting new people, reading, writing snail mail, making/listening to music, being out in nature etc... I really enjoy seeing a place from the perspective of the locals. Life is too short and too beautiful to not to try and experience every moment to its fullest.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat people the way you want to be treated, search for beauty in the unexpected places, open yourself to other points of view, allow yourself to be venerable. Life every day fully and completely.

"In a word, we must create our own essence; it is in throwing ourselves into the world, in suffering with it, that little by little, we define ourselves."
-Satre
