About Me

CURRENT MISSION

“Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life.” – Jack Kerouac

ABOUT ME
Living in the Pacific Northwest and working with people from around the world.
I am interested in sociology and international change. I love discussing worldly issues and live music.

I work in Refugee Resettlement, which has humbled me in more ways than imagined. I love this work with all of my heart, but it can get heavy, so I also work part time at a beer shop. Yes, good beer!

ADVENTURE ADVENTURE ADVENTURE! I am an avid hiker and lover of the outdoors.

Right now I am planning a trip to Spain in May, and possibly hopping over to Portugal and Morocco! If you have been and want to offer some insight-- PLEASE DO!

PHILOSOPHY

Live to improve the welfare of the world-- but please have fun doing it!
