About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet, experience, learn, discover, explore, dance, eat, party with everyone, everywhere I can.

ABOUT ME

I love meeting new people, traveling and having crazy experiences. I spent a semester studying music in Vienna while traveling Europe. I recently finished interning at a women's empowerment/HIV outreach organization in Uganda. I had an AWESOME time exploring and traveling the country! I like concerts, museums, clubs, dancing, exploring and wandering around aimlessly. I love bizarre, random, seemingly insane activities that are awesome at the time but then when you reflect back later, you realize it's amazing you didn't die or have something horrible happen....

PHILOSOPHY

always be curious, always be interested, life is for the living

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I rafted the category 5s of the Nile.

I was rescued by a Rwandan soldier after a messy car accident and recovered with the generosity of the villagers in Rwinkawavu.

I learned you can find hope and potential in anything.

I'm constantly amazed by the kindness of strangers.
