CURRENT MISSION

To see everything, everywhere.

ABOUT ME

I am a recent college graduate who wants to see the world. I currently live in my hometown, outside of Oregon City, Oregon. I work at a credit union and I love my job, I love knowing everyone who walks through the door and building that connection with my community. I like to read, and I am learning photography! I get very excited meeting people from different places, and learning about their cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short, and we have not much time to gladden the hearts of those who travel the way with us. So be swift to love, make haste to be kind, and may peace be with you all of your days.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing person I have ever met is my best friend Brad, who was diagnosed with stage IV cancer our sophomore year of college. Throughout his illness, my friend never let go of his positive outlook on life, and always had a smile on his face. He was determined to beat the disease, even as his health declined. After his death in 2009, I have tried to live every day with the same cheerful attitude that Brad had.

Teach, Learn, Share

I school people every day on the intricacies of English grammar. I love to learn, and share life experiences with others!
