I'm a graduate student researching Environmental and Watershed Sciences. I enjoy outdoor pursuits (running especially!) and learning about different cultures.

I've lived in the US most of my life, in Delaware, Maryland, and Utah! And I live in Finland for a year through the Fulbright program, during which time I traveled to Russia and 9 other countries of Europe.

I especially enjoy gardening and cooking in my spare time, and having a nice evening of dinner conversations with quality/depth, rather than quantity/shallowness. I like beer, but can't drink too much due to a stomach ulcer.
