ABOUT ME

I try to live life in the most present and thoughtful ways I can. I especially love meeting new people and embracing all kinds experiences -- my favorite ones happen with good folks and the outdoors, especially climbing and surfing. Now that I've graduated from college, I'm taking intentional time off to learn with my feet! I'm adaptable, and try to make the best of any situation, and am always interested.

PHILOSOPHY

Live outside yourself.
