About Me

I have a been a student for the majority of my life and love to learn new things. I have currently been working as a research assistant and educational attendant.I am just recently graduated now and want to travel to new lands and have great learning adventures! Recently I have been working on developing my writing and hope to publish something one day. I also love to experiment with music (garageband). More than anything I am currently working on developing a Architecture portfolio to apply for my Masters of Architecture. I love to have conversations, eat great food, and meet new people. I also have a beautiful cat named Luna who I adopted just over a year ago who has opened my heart even more.

Books:

Sherlocke Holmes, The Alchemist, The Divine Comedy, essays by J. Krishnamurti and Aldous Huxley, and poetry by William Blake.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I guess it will be what I am about to do, which is take a History and Philosophy of Medicine course in Greece for three weeks (May-June 2016), where I will also be volunteering for Syrian Refugee relief.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am always open to new ways of knowing and interested in alternative learning. I want to remain receptive in the world and experience the uniqueness of every situation.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to share knowledge and because of my studies and work experience is educational in nature I feel like I can offer a wealth of knowledge on lots of information relating to not only psychology and urban affairs, but all of my interests that we most likely share. My work requires that I write a lot and create notes that people can learn from so if there is a topic you are interested in, I'm happy to compile a reservoir of information for your personal reference.

In sharing space, I also hope to share great vibes!
