CURRENT MISSION

Attempting to re-train Ethiopian English teachers at the primary level with the occasional support of the Peace Corps

ABOUT ME

Graduated Drake University with a degree in Art History and International Relations.
After the Peace Corps, I plan to get a job in the art business field or go to grad school for an art-related degree.
Down the road, I hope to curate at a museum and/or own my own art gallery.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The best views I have ever seen were from Table Mountain at night in South Africa, overlooking Florence from San Miniato al Monte, and the 450 in Northern Michigan.
