About Me
CURRENT MISSION
“The only reason for being alive is being fully alive.” --D.H Lawrence
ABOUT ME
I am a pretty easy going girl. I love to go to the lake, camp, and go on road trips during the summer. In the winter I am usually an avid skier, but I have a stretched ACL right now and skiing in a brace is just way to scary. As far as school goes, I am taking my sweet time figuring out what I want to do and am just enjoying life in the mean time. I see no point in trying to rush through it, but would also be a forever student if I could.
I have two cats and because I live alone, I sometimes can be the crazy lady that talks to her cats. The important part is they don't talk back ;) But nonetheless, I love them dearly. I love dogs as well, just don't have any at the moment as a tiny apartment doesn't really bode well for puppers.
I love talking art and business. Not really two things that really go together, but blame it on my upbringing I guess. I am not an artist myself, but love to be surrounded by it and love the feelings and memories it can encourage.
I am a pretty good cooker and baker. I am usually the one that gets to make all the food when I see family, but I love it! Plus, that means I don't have to do dishes!
Beyond that, I'm not quite sure. I never really know what to write in these types of things and I feel like they change every couple months anyways.
PHILOSOPHY
Right now I am just living life as best I can. I am trying to get the best out of it while I still have the time!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
For sure Machu Picchu, the Sunday market in San Telmo was pretty awesome, hiking in and around Huaraz in Peru, and who could forget living in Ushuaia, the southern most city in the world, for two months.
And as typical/touristy as it might sound, there were some amazing vistas (not to mention memories) in Hawaii.
The Toyota plant in Nagoya was absolutely amazing and so worth the entire trip!
