About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Thinking, Creating, and Celebrating!

ABOUT ME

I am a very outgoing person who loves meeting new people, trying new foods, and learning new things all the time. Traveling is one way that I can do all of these things at once!

I laugh easily and always enjoy other people's company. I love cooking and baking, especially when other people are around to help me eat it!

I'm currently in law school but still try to push the limits of my interests and stay active. I try to do as much hot yoga as I can and bike otherwise. Used to run with a friend's husky but they moved ;(

I love reading sci-fi (Frank Herbert, Douglas Adams, Bradbury, Asimov, Card), love the tech and startup world, and obviously, read a lot of law these days ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Either way, I'm Celebrating.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been within two feet of flowing lava on top of a volcano near Antigua, Guatemala. (On the way down of the volcano it drizzled a little bit and large amount of steam came out from under the ground we were walking on). It was a very rugged experience...the rain, plus lava..

The Altai mountains in the middle of Siberia, Russia was also very beautiful. Russia, no matter where you are, emanates its expansive character.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would be happy to teach and learn languages...I play music (piano for a long time)..hoping to pick up jazz improvization at some point.

Umm...share traveling/life stories? I've also worked for my university television station for a while and would love to teach/share/learn more about video production and film!
