About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See, listen, learn, experience.

ABOUT ME

Born and raised in the southeast. Graduated from Mercer University in May 2010 with a degree in Early Education/Special Education. I work for a non-profit ministry in Atlanta. For 9 months of the year I work in a corporate setting, and for the other 3 months of the year I work in a summer camp setting. It's a weird setup, but it's fun, and it's my life for now. No week looks the same.

I love to travel, read, listen to music and go to shows, experience new culture, and meet new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy every moment. Life does not begin tomorrow or next year - it's now.

Adventure is where you are. Explore new places. Turn a stranger into a friend. Seek out the unseen. Impact lives, including your own. Give of your time and resources.

Live life. Love. Forgive. Glorify the Father.

Teach, Learn, Share

Smile. Extend a hand and friendship. Treat each other with respect and kindness.
