CURRENT MISSION

discovering what is worth pursuing

ABOUT ME
I am a curious introspective woman who loves to explore new places, read, and ask the big questions in life! My academic passions include computer science, computational biology, and international development. I am deeply committed to social justice, and love exploring solutions to the economic and education inequalities I see in our society.

Some of my hobbies are model rocketry, quiz bowl, investigating positive psychology, meditation, reading, and making electronic music. I founded Swatbox, a club at Swarthmore dedicated to innovative methods of music appreciation and sharing, where members carry boomboxes and blast the music they want to share around campus.

I love traveling, but I am not rich! Therefore, I addictively pursue opportunities to travel for free. This past year, I've received scholarships to travel to Paris, China, Seoul, Minnesota, and Arizona, and Belgium. I'm hoping to work or study abroad in Africa sometime in the near future.

PHILOSOPHY

value your relationships, build skills, make decisions based on reason and logic, make the most of every day!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am eager to participate in this community of people who want to squeeze as much out of life as possible! When I'm traveling I want to connect with other interesting people and learn about their cultures, and not be just a tourist! I'm here to make genuine friends, NOT TO HOOK UP.
