About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"The coolest thing you can do is doing it."

ABOUT ME

Right now I just finished a pretty intense tour of southern Europe with 45 other architecture students and now I'm free to explore for a few weeks before I return stateside. I've had the time of my life entertaining my curiosities abroad and I'm eager to see new places, expierence other cultures, and meet new people!

PHILOSOPHY

Live in present, be mindful of the future, honor the past.

Music, Movies, and Books

Admittably I have a shallow taste in movies. I listen to all types of music for a variety. Mostly just books for school ; architecture, art history, philosophy, theory.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm doing it! Traveling abroad has been incredible. Its difficult to process as I'm still doing it but I'd say climbing an ALP. (twice), seeing Rome in two days, and walking out of Notre-Dame and stumbling upon thestart of the final stage of the Tour de France.

Teach, Learn, Share

Architecture and design I think I could teach to a not-so certain degree. I'm working on it. More importantly, I strongly believe in learning, anything, everyday. I also love to share, except that is something you have to work for (wink).
