ABOUT ME

Hello!
I am a graduate from UW with degrees in International Studies, and Environmental Studies, with a minor in Global Health. Soccer, cranberries, nutella,food, traveling, and music are a few of my favorite things. Some things I am involved in at my university are Model United Nations, and music committee, where I get to help book bands, work shows, and meet awesome people, which is super fun.

PHILOSOPHY

It's hard to say anything without sounding cliche, and its hard to describe my feelings about life in a few words. I just want to always have life in my life. I want to travel, eat good food, hear great music and more. I want to make the world a better place as well, but I would hope that everyone feels the same way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

* Camping on Rock Island, WI. There is no electricity on the island, and when it is a clear night, and the moon sets, you can see so many stars, it's amazing.

* Lollapalooza 2011. On the last day, there were storms on and off all day, and Deadmau5 was our last show of the night, and it just started to downpour. The heat, rain, lights, and music just made it so surreal.

*Standing in-between train cars on the train from Colombo to Kandy in Sri Lanka. I have never been around air so fresh and the scenery of "hill country" as it is called was breathtaking.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a knack at making interesting and delicious food without a recipe and learning music by ear
