About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Falling in love with the world, and life.

ABOUT ME

I am currently a graduate student in Biology, studying fossils. I love that my passion in life also allows me to travel to some amazing places. I love a nice, big cup of coffee, enjoy microbrew beers, and going for hikes. I love meeting new people, hearing stories, and experiencing new cultures. I am always surprised by how big - and small - the world is.

PHILOSOPHY

Be honest, be open. I am very much a lover of life - it's much too short to take for granted and not experience. Nothing makes me happier than being around genuine people and sharing stories over beer or a good home-cooked meal. I try to see the beauty and positivity in everything I experience, and am a lover of all creatures.
