CURRENT MISSION

Live outside the box. Have fun. Learn new things everyday.

ABOUT ME

I am silly, random, spontaneous, and pretty energetic. I would rather be moving than sitting any day. I've been flying in airplanes since I was born. Its kind of hard to avoid since I was born on the island of Guam. My parents have been around the world twice, and I have inherited a serious case of the travel bug. Since then I have been to Australia, New Zealand, Greece, Germany, UK,Ireland, Costa Rica, Belize, Palau, Tunisia, Malta, Bermuda, and a few others. I spent a summer in Spain as well as in France. I lived in Pohnpei,Micronesia for 10 month working as a volunteer teacher. This year, I lived in Rio de Janeiro for 4 months to enjoy Carnaval and also to teach business English. I studied Italian in Florence, Italy a few years ago and I just moved back to FLORENCE in September 2011 to work for a study abroad program. Im going to be living here in Florence for the next year or so.

PHILOSOPHY

People are the single most important thing in life. I want to be the kind of person that is learning new things everyday and what better way to learn about life and the world, than to travel and talk to new people!I feel like there are so many people who want to travel,work, intern around the world...and there aren't people to help them find the right connections. I would love to create a company that assists young people in making those dreams come true.
