CURRENT MISSION

To embrace humanity and its cultures of the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer that served in Ukraine (Group 41, 2011-2014). I'm currently attending university for the second time around studying optometry. I have an open heart and open mind and always looking for my next big adventure or cultural adrenaline rush. Nothing excites me more than gaining wisdom from those different from myself.

PHILOSOPHY

Look around you. If everyone you see is similar to yourself, move.
