About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be me. Goofy, animal loving, fun, adventurous.

ABOUT ME

I am pretty outdoorsy. I like hiking but don't have the opportunity to do so where I live now and have more recently gotten into yoga. I like to be active, and I like to be creative. I am searching for my calling in life. Pretty sure it has something to do with working with animals or the environment, but not sure in what sense yet. I love exploring and discovering new things. I love learning.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing Angels Landing in Zion. At the top there was this moment of utter silence, coming from LA and living in the suburbs my entire life, this has never happened. Pretty sure my heart stopped for that moment.
Crossing the finish line at my Ironman. Best feeling in the entire world, best feeling I have ever felt.
This moment in Germany. I was hiking up to my hostel which happened to be located in a castle (yes, this is very true) and I stopped to look off a cliff at the Rhein River. I was drunk on wine and down below me, men were singing a German drinking song. Agoat bleated in the distance. At that moment I felt like I was truly experiencing something genuine and beautiful.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning about new people and I love having conversations about things I don't understand yet.
