ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm 24, female, and am friendly, relaxed, and interested in people and places. I hail from North Carolina and have lived abroad and always enjoy new interactions and adventures! I study public health and am excited about my upcoming graduation. And I have a great (read: wide-ranging) sense of humor and love engaging conversation!

(and I'm terrible at writing bios, grief)
