About Me

CURRENT MISSION

see the world with open eyes

ABOUT ME

I am young and quickly growing older (too quickly). I love to joke - I find there are times to be serious and times not to be, and I try to strike a balance. I always feel the best when I am climbing up a mountain, swimming in a river, or jumping off some tall rock into a lake or river. From California, living in Boston. I will soon be a JD candidate at Northeastern University Law School.

PHILOSOPHY

I`m still trying to work this out . . .
