CURRENT MISSION

I honestly just want to see some wild killer whales and hang out with cool people in the meantime.

ABOUT ME

I like meeting new people. I like to meet ambitious and independent people with a real passion for at least one thing in life. I like to see people light up when they talk about that subject. :-)

PHILOSOPHY

"God is a comedian playing to an audience too afraid to laugh." - Voltaire

That sums it up nicely.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Anytime some is really nice in some form of way, honestly. Even if it's just eye contact and a genuine smile. And anytime I see a killer whale in person, their massive size always overwhelms me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm pretty good with a microwave...but I also professionally train animals- I am working on getting my license to train therapy dogs soon. I volunteer for a wolf sanctuary, a horse rescue, and for Hubbs-SeaWorld Research Institute doing dolphin research surveys and helping stranded marine mammals.

I was a lifeguard for over 2 years as a SeaWorld College Experience Intern. I am currently CPR/AED and First Aid certified by the American Red Cross. Chicks dig chicks that save lives.

I am a beginner "Florida" gardener. Earlier this year, my roommate and I dug up our first garden and we are learning about proper pH balancing and fun stuff like which bugs like what plants. ;-)
Excited to learn more!
