About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live every day to the fullest!

ABOUT ME

I am from Minneapolis, Minnesota. I am a student studying business and will soon be graduating and entering the real world!
I love to travel and learn about different cultures. I have traveled to Paris for 6 weeks in 2008 and lived in France for 5 months in 2010.

I am a very calm, easy going personality. I love to sit and talk for hours over coffee. I believe in truth, beauty, freedom, and love!

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy can be described in a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson: "The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well."
