About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Soak in the different environments and people of the world. Hike beautiful places, hear good music, and drink good beer 👍

ABOUT ME

22 year old GIS mapping tech. I graduated from UCLA studying environmental science and conservation biology, and now I live a nomadic lifestyle, going where the data-getting is good 🗺

I live for music, art, the outdoors, animals, having fun, and learning new things. I play flute and sax 🎷
