About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To not be afraid. To be the ringleader. To regret not having enough time, and thats it. To have the story that everyone else wanted. To, of course, be the best

ABOUT ME

I am a dreamer, frankly. I studied rigorously to become an M.D. in my undergraduate work. So much so that I locked myself in labs, published articles, and maintained an admirable G.P.A.

The catch: I have realized that the life of a Med school student is not for me.

I spent last summer backpacking through all of Western Europe, and realized that I am one for the road. I have starved my artistic side, I have deprived my paper of my pen, and my music of my notes; and truthfully I am quite tired of it.
