CURRENT MISSION

I have a gap year and I am planning to travel, volunteer, and experience the world this year.

ABOUT ME

I am 23 years old, enthusiastic about life, and am ready to begin a journey around the world. I have had the opportunity to travel and live in Ecuador and Peru for 7 months, and have been to several other countries. There is much yet to be experienced.

I am fairly outgoing, and interested in getting to know the people I meet. When I am not out enjoying the mountains and solitude, people matter to me and make life what it is. I am really excited to meet people from all over this year and really get to know life from different perspectives.

Places I have traveled to:
visited 39 states (78%)Create your own visited map of The United States or another interesting project
visited 54 states (24%)Create your own visited map of The World or Brazil travel guide for Android

PHILOSOPHY

Two things:

I strive to live fully alive, and through the way I live, to help others become fully alive.

I strive to live full of hope, peace, and joy as I search after God's purposes in life.
