ABOUT ME

I dream big and never stop planning the next opportunity that I'll get to experience this wonderful world. I feel that life isn't truly being lived unless you are learning something new as often as possible, challenging yourself daily and taking the time to listen to someones story. I am motivated to continue experiencing the world one country, one person, one dream at a time. I work as an environmental consultant for a big engineering company, but that's what I do, not who I am.

PHILOSOPHY

At the end of my life I hope I can stand before God without any talent or skills left, and tell him " I used everything you gave me"….

Everybody has a story, and I always have time to hear them.
