About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to improve my Spanish

ABOUT ME

I graduated from Purdue in 2010, and then I moved to Denver, CO to be a ski bum for a year. I then moved to Chicago to attend law school. I now live in Madrid, getting an LL.M.

I'm a wanderer, a lover of all foods, beer, wine, music, traveling, hiking, cycling, soccer, and a lot more.

PHILOSOPHY

"Keep your eyes on the prize." MLKJ

Work to live, don't live to work.
