CURRENT MISSION

Attaining the perfect travel combination of volunteering, learning, and relaxing

ABOUT ME

I’m sociable but mellow, self-sufficient, independent - no babysitting needed!

PHILOSOPHY

Putting it out there as a challenge to each of us, myself included, but If there's a specific cause, or movement, or issue that's so monumentally important to you, don't you owe it to yourself to dedicate a few hours of your time each week to ensure your vision happens? Whatever you find important in your life, not just talk about it, but be about it?

I guess my thought assumes that your issue will be a socially progressive one that moves the country forward for a greater good, but your cause could be one of family, self gain, or even esoteric religious enlightenment. But whatever you believe in, whatever situations you think could be improved globally or in the your immediate surroundings, maybe your own life will be improved if you invest in those issues.

兴趣

Instead of just using the extra time for vacationing and partying, I’d like to take the opportunity to try and learn about people and cultures. Right now I'm focused on motorcycle riding, school, and learning to take lots of good pictures!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I hate heights so it's amazing that I jump out of planes on a regular basis without crying like a three year-old, but the most exciting thing I've done is a two way tie: took a picture with Obama in Ebony Magazine's studio just one week after he was elected = wound up on the media platform three stories up in the middle of Times Square on New Year’s 2000 (I know there’s a picture of that out there somewhere…)
