CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Wouldn't it be nice if we could charcterize an entire personality into a little profile box? I don't think that this will be possible but I will give it a try:

I am a fairly easy-going person. As cliche as it sounds I love exploring new places and trying new things. I am currently studying abroad in Prague and after this semester I will return to the U.S. and finish my dual majors in Political Science and English Literature. I hope to become a lawyer and work in the field of international law.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to live a life without regrets. Which means that when I'm thirty I do not want to look back at my time abroad and say "I wish I had done this..."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Growing up in Alaska I have seen and done lot of amazing things. Perhaps one of the most amazing was seeing the aurora borealis. Brilliant shades of green, pink, orange, yellow and red painting the night sky. I have seen it many times and it still amazes me.
Seeing the night sky free from any type of light pollution is also amazing. There are so many stars!
