CURRENT MISSION

Relax, breathe and enjoy the day!

ABOUT ME

I love to laugh!! One of my favorite things to do is catch up with good friends and laugh all night. I have been traveling around North America and abroad for almost eight years. Throughout my travels i have met such amazing people. It has almost become routine to end up in a new place every six months. There are many paths you can take in life. I think that learning to live within your means is super important. I love to raft, kayak, ski, snowboard, skydive and just experience the outdoors.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that appreciating everything you have is really important. Working as a raft guide and ski patroller i have learned to live within my means, which hasn't been a whole lot. I have been able to do some amazing things. I believe that you should be able to smile at the end of the day, no matter how bad the day was. I had a psychology professor in college who said that no matter how sad or upset you are, try to smile and it will indeed make you feel a little better. I think it is important to listen to what others have to say. Whether you agree with what they are saying or not, you can always learn something from them. Patience is something i have learned and am still trying to master. I admire people who seem to have mastered patience.
