CURRENT MISSION

Experiencing new cities and avoiding tourist traps, rock climbing, eating good food, jumping into lakes, hanging out on beaches, buying dinner and drinks for my hosts(!), reading novels, not being chained to my desk..

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going and down to earth type of person, native of southern California, recently finished my master's at Yale and moved back to the San Francisco Bay Area, where I work for the regional government doing investments in climate change technologies. I'm passionate about the environment and helping reduce my impact/the impacts of humans on our planet. I love to climb, play guitar, explore the mountains, read good books, and cook.
