CURRENT MISSION

I'm on a career break. I was in Detroit for most part of September doing a volunteer work with an organization called All Hands that does disaster response.

Right now, I'm in Portland and I will be heading to Seattle soon and then to California area.

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Tigray, Ethiopia. Right now, I work and live in DC.

I'm usually struggling to learn new skills to better my life. Just recently, I learned how to swim, and I have also included Meditation and Yoga into my life.

I care about family and friends. I have not traveled much but looking forward to travel and see the beautiful things that the world has to offer...
