About Me

ABOUT ME

I have a Bachelor of Science in philosophy and, I recently finished my Master's in geographic information science. I love to travel, and camp, and explore. In the summer of 2013, I traveled across Europe for two months and absolutely loved it. I have also traveled much across the United States. I believe the world is full of amazing people and I look forward to many new experiences.

Currently I coach a high school ultimate frisbee team in Seattle, WA.

PHILOSOPHY

"At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be infinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us." Henry Thoreau -- Walden
