About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring the world and learning about life!

ABOUT ME

I am currently a student at San Francisco State University. I am participating in a study abroad program in France and so, will be studying here in Southern France for a year. I'm excited to be in such close proximity to such wonderful places. As an anthropology major, I find it is an important part of my studies, as well as self fulfillment and personal growth, to experience and witness many different places and cultures around the world. Another way of doing this is to learn languages and so, I have decided to study in France for the sole purpose of learning to speak french. I find people to be the most interesting part of the world and most satisfying part of life and am grateful for those who have made an impact on my life. It's important that the people of the world educate one another on their ways of life.

PHILOSOPHY

C'est pas grave! Life is a beautiful thing. There is nothing more fulfilling than helping others.
