About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To get lost in others' worlds

ABOUT ME

I am currently working at RWTH Aachen as a translator for their web team. I've gotten used to being in Aachen and make an effort to explore new things in the area each year. I don't want to move away feeling like I didn't take advantage of all it has to offer. I love laughing and having unexpected experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to the fullest and take every opportunity at hand. You never know when it'll come again. Live without regrets.

Interests

running, cooking, veganism, outdoor adventures, arts, languages, culture shock, LGBT issues and cultures, green life, student affairs/higher education, social justice.

Music, Movies, and Books

Dark Star Safari is the one book that made me want to travel and see the world for myself and not just assume what others tell me is true.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked in Alaska and got to do amazing things, such as go on a helicopter ride to then land on a glacier. It is the most amazing, therapeutic place I've ever been. I highly recommend it.
