About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live life and enjoy it!

ABOUT ME

Laid back person who likes to travel and experience what the world and others have to offer. Also, a bit of a homebody who can stay put on a saturday night and do some reading or writing and a friend of libraries. Currently I am working for a k-12 school in Xela, Guatemala as the librarian after DC for several years.

PHILOSOPHY

80% of success is showing up.
