About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Accepted internship at US Embassy in Singapore until end of April, and then more travel throughout Southeast Asia, Europe, and South America!

ABOUT ME

Half French, half American. I got to school at Northeastern in Boston. I study international affairs and public policy. Before graduating from college I'm taking a year away from class to learn more about the world and about myself. I love to play hard, work hard, and discussion various topics with people who don't necessarily agree with me.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life differently. Live to inspire.
