CURRENT MISSION Be a traveler, not a tourist. ABOUT ME I go to Bennington College in VT, but I'm currently studying in Copenhagen, Denmark and loving it. I consider myself a pretty mellow, easygoing person, and I love learning about other cultures. PHILOSOPHY Inherent meaninglessness = open possibility. Everybody creates meaning in their own life, and there's nothing holding us back but ourselves.
Interested in Books & Literature
Fluent in English
Learning Danish

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Making the decision to leave Los Angeles and go to school in rural Vermont was terrifying, but I'm glad I did it. It's been a great experience, as has studying abroad this semester. Random cool things I've done: judge a local battle of the bands, name a product for a pretty big company, receive a free, signed copy of a book by my favorite author.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can talk about literature, philosophy, politics, movies, books, and music for hours on end. Ask and I'll tell!
My Interests
Metal, philosophy, peanut butter, and cats. I tend to spend my free time reading, watching movies, and going to see live music whenever possible.
