Sobre mí

CURRENT MISSION

to expand my network of friends and experiences

ABOUT ME

I graduated from the University of Tennessee in the Spring of 2012. Since then I have been working on a start-up with a women's empowerment organization in Uganda that connects homeless and HIV+ women to local artisans and business mentors. I am trying to make their products available and affordable around the U.S., while creating a totally transparent supply chain.

Any advice?

PHILOSOPHY

Be persistent. Be passionate.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I saw the 20th anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall. I saw Obama get his Nobel Peace Prize. I lived in a remote island in the South Pacific for 4 months. I've climbed part of the Great Wall, seen the Eiffel Tower, seen the Colosseum. I shopped in a Guatemalan market in Chichicastenango. I saw my brother get married. I hitch hiked from the south of Austria to Berlin. I studied Russian in Moscow, Estonia, and Latvia. I saw Shaquille O'Neal in person and got to watch him proclaim "I am Kazam" for the group of kids I was with. I've walked through snow piled higher than a lot of houses. I've caught a fish and eaten it raw out of the ocean. I've drunk water straight from a river in Slovenia. There are too many amazing things to choose just one...
